[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate it when people don't send the calendar invite with the meeting links and then follow up the next day and imply that I missed the meeting. What am I supposed to respond to that other than (re)scheduling?[/quote]

It is a little unclear what happened here.  If you straight up did not get any notification of the exact time of the meeting or how to join, sure not on you at all.  You can just reschedule.
If you received an email or phone notice of the meeting, as in "We'll gather at 10:00 on the usual conference line"  then yeah, you should have put that on the calendar yourself...[/quote]

There's no usual conference line. We verbally agreed on a day and time, and the other person said they would send a calendar invite. I didn't receive it/it wasn't sent. The other person said I'm sorry you missed our meeting...[/quote]

Obviously something went awry on their end, but you have to own your part in this as well.  [b]You knew there was a date and time sent, and then blew it off anyway when you didn't get a calendar invite.[/b]  You should have followed up before the meeting when you didn't get a calendar invite.[/quote]

I completely agree.  You need to apologize OP for missing the meeting.[/quote]

WHAT? OP these people are wack. This must be something that varies org to org. At my company we discuss availability verbally all the time but it isn't set until the organizer sends an invite. Stuff changes all the time so it is not weird to say we're going to set a meeting for Wednesday, hear nothing for 5 days, and then it pops ok the calendar for 2 Fridays from now.

And if the person did organize it and forgot to invite you, then that would be on the organizer at my org, not the person left off the invitation list. [/quote]

yes I agree with you. We're not in the same org, so something definitely got lost in translation. Of course I'll apologize for "missing" the meeting and not call out the other person. But I do find it strange they called me out. Maybe to save face in front of their boss. [/quote]
