What do you call someone who sends a slack message at 8:25 in the morning asking, "Are you okay for a call at 8:30?" And then complains to your manager when you don't show up to that unscheduled meeting, which is even outside of working hours?

Let your manager know it was not planned and out side of your working hours.

Sounds like people have different working hours, that needs to be clear to everyone.
Your manager should have your back though and be making it clear to said people that they can ask to schedule something when you're available or just leave you a note and you can get back to them when you're online.

I'd take it as a sign that they are ok with working outside standard hours. Which means.. I'd call them around dinner time about a concept that I came up with around that time.

Especially if you don't report to this person, it's completely unreasonable for you to be able to meet with a five minute notice. I won't even schedule within an hour, inside of business hours, unless I have already checked with the person and it's necessary. If it's outside of your approved business hours, it's also not okay unless you agree to it in advance. I'll meet outside of my business hours but I prefer a conversation and a few days notice.

Imagine starting your day with a message from your manager telling you that X said you missed a 'meeting' in the morning, when there was no meeting scheduled, It's so unprofessional.
I told my manager, I even have a Calendly with my availabilities in my Slack profile, I don't know why some people think Slack is a tool for organizing meetings on the fly.

I had this situation happen. I sent my manager a note right away to avoid being thrown under the bus. Sounds childish but in corporate I have learned to CYA. I have a good manager that is supportive and aligns that last minute requests are unprofessional and often not effective.

Social Security tax/HSA question - one of the unique benefits to HSA is that on top of being income tax free it is also payroll tax free. For specifically the 6.2% social security portion of FICA that only applies to the first $147k does that just mean you pay it on dollars earned from 147 to 154 instead for no net benefit?

It is of varying length and has a different length of character preceding it and following it. Any help is appreciated! I will include a formula for something similar I used in the past, but this is different given its placement in the text sequence. (I hoped this formula would be a good start)
