Meeting-planning tips
- Always state the zone in invites (“3pm EST”) — “3pm” alone causes missed meetings.
- Daylight saving shifts the math twice a year; the converter accounts for it automatically.
- Recurring meetings across zones drift when DST starts/ends on different dates — re-check in March and October.
