Also don’t forget timezones. Just because the employees could be having meetings at that time doesn’t mean the contractor is not in a different TZ and that could be fucking early or late and not fit their defined work hours if they even had a specific time to start and end work, they could just have a “core hours” thing and manage their day time as they see fit.
Totally agree, if that’s the case it’s an excellent reason to be asleep or miss the meeting. If this is the case the manager should also know this and not be surprised. This also goes back to my other point of why do they fucking care, it’s a contractor. Just let the contract run out, add this to the next contract and put it out to bid.
