Timezone Slackbot - TZ

Tier: 2-Intermediate

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.
