I live on the west coast, and work for people on Central time. I regularly take my first meeting of the day having just rolled out of bed. There is a 7AM weekly all-hands meeting that I simply don't attend most of the time, because it's usually pretty light on information and my productivity will tank for the day if I cut my sleep short to make it. I recently travelled while working; through the Eastern and Atlantic timezones. It was hilarious how much more effective I felt. I was fully awake for morning meetings and had several hours for focused work each day where no one could bother me. People who work in the "ahead" timezones truly have a slight advantage in the corporate world, IMO. Makes me wish I worked for a company on Hawaii time TBH.
