Questions
What is the best time for a meeting between San Francisco, London and Bengaluru?
No working hour fits all three. The fairest is 7–8 am in San Francisco, 3–4 pm in London, 8:30–9:30 pm in Bengaluru. No hour fits everyone’s 9 am to 6 pm. At the closest fit, San Francisco starts 2 hours early, and Bengaluru stays 3½ hours late.
Is there an hour when all three are awake?
No. There’s no hour when everyone is between 8 am and 10 pm, so someone always takes the call early or late.
Does a weekly 7 am meeting move during the year?
Yes. Kept at 7 am in San Francisco, it lands at 3 pm in London and 8:30 pm in Bengaluru; then 2 pm in London and 7:30 pm in Bengaluru; then 3 pm in London and 7:30 pm in Bengaluru; then 2 pm in London and 7:30 pm in Bengaluru over the year, as each place changes its clocks on its own date.
