Confirm Your Appointments

posted on March 12, 2007

Confirming your appointments is a good practice to get into anyway. For the next 3 weeks it's going to be almost a necessity.

If you haven't noticed already everyone's schedules are a little fouled up with the early change to daylight savings time. This change was enacted by Congress just 2 years ago and many software programs that automatically account for daylight savings time are off by an hour. I noticed it myself last week when I was trying to schedule an afternoon appointment. Somehow my Rotary meeting that always happens at noon thought it was starting at 1pm.

There are just too many ways that times could have gotten crossed for the next couple of weeks. Perhaps your software moved something to the wrong spot. Maybe the person you're planning on meeting got tripped up by their software.

The easy fix is simply to call ahead and confirm the time of the meeting.

Happy Networking!
