A morning flag for anything scheduled outside your 9-to-6 -- so evenings stop filling up by default.
Boundary creep is silent. A colleague in another time zone books 7pm, a client grabs 8am, and each one seems fine in isolation. Then you realize you've worked around your working hours four days this week.
Calendars accept every invite equally. Defending your hours takes a daily check that nobody has time to do by hand.
This routine runs every morning. It scans today's calendar and flags any meeting that falls outside your preferred working hours -- 9am to 6pm by default, adjustable in the prompt.
Each morning you see the violations before they happen, and you can decline, move, or consciously accept them -- instead of noticing at 7:45pm.
Copy this prompt into a new Littlebird routine. Edit the days and times to fit your schedule.
Every morning flag any meetings today that fall outside my preferred working hours of 9am to 6pm
Your Google Calendar, and nothing else. It reads tomorrow's schedule and flags the spots where your limits get crossed.
Yes. Change the hours in the prompt -- 8 to 5, 10 to 7, four-day weeks -- and the check follows your rules.
Travel and remote colleagues create most violations. The flag shows the meeting in your time, so you judge fairly.
It's free on the Basic plan. Plus costs $17 per month billed annually or $20 month to month, with a 14-day trial, for fuller stacks.
No. It flags; you decide. Some early meetings are worth it -- the point is that they're a choice, not a surprise.
Put Littlebird to work.
