Does the gap change?

Best time to meet
Normal office hours in Rome and Phoenix don't overlap. The most workable window is 7 AM to 1 PM in Phoenix, which is 4 PM to 10 PM in Rome, with one side starting early or finishing late.
For a recurring meeting, it's fairest to rotate which city takes the inconvenient slot.
