Not when you're working from home and being a dad at the same time. Got my kids nap times aligned with meetings. "Oh, sorry to cancel last minute"

Fuck me, I gotta align this shit all over again tomorrow.

    But...it's canceled, not rescheduled for a different time that day. You just have free time. I don't understand how that affects other timing.

    It doesn't but trying to perfectly time your kids nap to the meeting time (she's still young and needs at least 2) usually results in a really cracky kid at some point.

    Sleep is important and I try not to fuck with it when I can. So doing that when someone just cancels 10 minutes prior is frustrating and usually means I woke her up early from a nap previously to get on a good time sync.

    Rescheduling to a different time that day is less bad because I can more easily keep her up another 30-40 minutes depending on the time of the day.

    Basically if it's a completely different day it means she's cranky back to back days.
