You don't need to go to Mars to deal with timezones .. plenty of people right here who have absolutely no idea that half the planet is dark at any one time and still schedule global events in their colloquial timezone rather than UTC.

Urgh ... so many times I have to say "I'll only do this mandatory teams meeting if you pay me an unsociable working hours bonus, because you scheduled it for 3am" :-/

The meeting is always pointless bullshit that could have been a 1-page email at most

And I experience that idiotic practice mostly from Americans and American companies

I love when companies schedule things like trailers, lives, premieres etc etc when most of the world is asleep
