Chicago is 11 hours behind Islamabad

There is no standard 8-to-6 overlap. Someone joins early or late.

Islamabad and Chicago have no natural overlap. The 11-hour gap is simply too large for regular working hours to meet. Treat the handoff like a relay — Chicago wraps up and leaves notes for Islamabad to pick up as their day begins. Note the seasonal wrinkle: when Chicago is on daylight saving and Islamabad isn't, the gap between them grows or shrinks by an hour.
