When the gap changes

São Paulo is 3 hours ahead of Mexico City all year round.

Neither changes its clocks for summer, so there is nothing to keep track of.

Making it work

With five hours in common, Mexico City and São Paulo can meet on almost any working day without anyone bending their hours. The morning in Mexico City is the shared part.

The risk with a wide window is the opposite one: meetings spread across all of it and there is no shared hour left for focused work. Keep recurring calls at one end of it.
