# Timezone Slackbot - TZ
Team members often need to find out each others timezone as the first step
in finding times for meetings and pair programming sessions. To help with this
the Timezone Slack bot accepts as list of Slack user names and displays the
the timezone for each user in a stacked format as follows:
```
-12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9 +10 +11 +12 +13 +14
Fred X
Nisha X
Ming X

```
Note that this format is provided for descriptive purposes only. When
implemented a more pleasing and user-friendly format may be used.
