Warning: Detroit will remember the ping you sent at 19:00. Plant shifts and Eastern Time: 06:00 might be mid-shift for someone, and still too early for Slack. The polite window around Downtown Detroit is 08:00–17:00 local. Detroit still shifts with daylight saving (UTC−5 in January, UTC−4 in July). Save heroics for actual incidents. Midwinter sunsets still arrive before dinner, which makes late Slack feel later than the clock.
