Dealing with Time Changes in Scheduling

Danny: Don’t bother looking for next year’s meeting Calendar. I’m still working on it.

Tessa: What’s taking so long?

Danny: This is my first time scheduling all of the major meetings for this company and I’m getting Thrown off by all of the things I have to Keep in mind. For instance, our Bylaws say that we have to have a management meeting every 60 days. This is a Leap year, so do I have To take that into account?

Tessa: That’s a tough one. I’m not sure.

Danny: And what about Daylight saving time? I have to remember when clocks will be Set ahead and Back.

Tessa: That’s easy. My high school teacher taught us to remember it with a simple phrase: “Fall back and spring ahead.”

Danny: Okay, but that doesn’t help me with dates. Apparently, daylight saving time changes on different dates in different countries. And I have To factor in time zones to set the time for each meeting, with meeting times that work for each international office that will be participating.

Tessa: You’re right, it’s a Tall order, but you do know that someone has done this before? You don’t have To reinvent the wheel.

Danny: Yeah, Carl set the meeting calendar last year, but he left the company last month.

Tessa: Can’t you just take last year’s meeting calendar and Fudge it?

Danny: Why do you think Carl is no longer with the company?

Tessa: Ah.
