Unhappy Time differences really suck!

I'm sitting here working at 12:30am my time, on a friday night because my designers are a 12hr time difference! I really hate the time differences sometimes! Anyone else have to deal with this?

hire people on your time table - plan strategy meetings at a reasonable hour. I don't know. If you were attempting to save money by getting designers overseas - thats the price you pay

I'll just agree: time differences suck.

Once a long time ago, my father called me and was worried because "he woke me up." He thought I might have been ill and that was why I was asleep. I said "Dad, it's 5:00 AM here." He'd added 3 hours to his time rather than subtracting it. *sigh* When simple arithmetic goes horribly wrong....

I'm the only one in our company that is in the states. We have people that work on my time schedule too, but sometimes I need to talk to specific people.
