Open Meeting Planner →Calls between Chicago and Cairo usually connect finance and derivatives and logistics on one side with government and construction on the other. The gap is 8 hours, with Cairo the one whose clock reads later — and whose date has often already turned.
Chicago works Monday to Friday and Cairo Sunday to Thursday, which leaves only three or four shared working days a week.
The office days never overlap; the workable slots are Chicago's early morning against Cairo's evening. Rotate the inconvenience rather than fixing it on one side. Both cities change their clocks, on different dates, so the gap is an hour off for a few weeks each spring and autumn.
Cairo is 8 hours ahead of Chicago. The gap changes by an hour around the clock changes.
There is no hour when both offices are open. The closest is early morning in Chicago against the end of the day in Cairo; alternate which side takes the awkward slot.
Alternate. A standing call that is always 07:00 for Chicago or always 19:00 for Cairo is resented within a month; rotating it keeps both sides in the room.
Not always. At 09:00 in Chicago it is already the next calendar day in Cairo, so every invitation should carry the date in both cities.
