Scheduling across Chicago and Doha
Scheduling between Chicago and Doha is hard. Their standard business hours do not overlap on the same day, but the two working days meet at a single point: Doha's close at 17:00 coincides exactly with Chicago's open at 09:00. A call timed to that boundary catches both sides at the edge of their day.
