Nairobi is 10 hours ahead of Los Angeles

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

Practically speaking, Los Angeles and Nairobi never share office hours; 10 hours of separation keeps their days apart. To talk live, someone has to flex: an early start in Los Angeles can catch the tail end of the day in Nairobi, or the other way round. The difference isn't constant year-round: Los Angeles adjusts for daylight saving while Nairobi holds steady.
