Session booked for 3pm GMT today
We are now BST which is GMT+1

Production company meant 3pm UK time.

Where was I when ISDN was failing to connect? Where was I when PA was frantically calling my office? Out with Jazz and Bess. Well I would be wouldn't I as it wasn't time for the session!

Session booked today when the big hand is on the 12 and the little hand is on the 5 ...CLEAR ENOUGH FOR YOU MR BANKS?

Hey, it could be worse. You could live in Arizona (which is a problem all its own) but they refuse to go on Savings Time, which means for several months they are three hours behind the Eastern Zone instead of the usual two hours, and they're on the same time as the Pacific. Then in winter they go back to Mountain Time where they belong.

I always checked the client's time zone and then booked it in their time zone so I alone had to do the crazy math.

Excuse me I have to go to be now, so's I can be up and perky for a 7 AM Pacific session. That doesn't sound too bad if I can actually get to sleep! And better that the 6 AM call to book the job...
