Scheduling across Queenstown and São Paulo
Scheduling between Queenstown and São Paulo is hard. Their standard business hours do not overlap on the same day, but the two working days meet at a single point: São Paulo's close at 18:00 coincides exactly with Queenstown's open at 09:00. A call timed to that boundary catches both sides at the edge of their day.
