Where did you get the idea that the Julian calendar doesn't have months? The Gregorian calendar we use now made a tiny tweak to it to reduce drift, but is nearly the same.

You both just have present your working or availability hours beforehand. Honestly this works better for me than someone assuming I'm available for an 8am meeting. I live on the US east coast, but my sleeping schedule is more west coast.

Can you say 10 before half nine for 8:20?

The problem is that "do you mind if" is really just an indirect way of saying "may I." People often tend to reply to the actual meaning rather than the literal meaning.

Prepositions are so arbitrary. So it's really stupid to be so angry about "on accident". But I can't help it.

A driveway is where you drive to get the residence, vs the walkway. Parkways are landscaped with park-like greenery .
