How This Pair Actually Operates

Pune and Riga have a dependable shared block, but the good slot is narrow enough that lunch, late starts, and DST drift can still damage meeting quality.

Anchor important meetings to the shared band and treat the rest of the day as async support time.

Operating mode
Live with guardrails

This pair still supports live work, but the useful band is narrow enough that calendars should be built around the overlap instead of hoping ad hoc slots remain usable.

Meeting cadence
Recurring rule

Run the recurring forum in the shared bridge window and move spillover into written notes.

Scheduling Pressure Points

Operating model

Anchor important meetings to the shared band and treat the rest of the day as async support time.

Local-time burden

The cleanest live band overlaps a lunch window for both cities, so the nominal overlap is more fragile than the raw offset suggests. Workweek guidance is limited for this pair, so keep local operating calendars visible.

DST watch

Pune and Riga are currently in different DST states, so recurring slots need a separate seasonal review instead of assuming the current offset will hold.
