You can set your working hours in Google Calendar

First... 🫂 On google calendar you can setup auto deny when there is another meeting already scheduled. You can also setup office hours which will throw up a warning when someone tries to book outside work hours. You can also be passive aggresive by setting up one long meeting after office hours so that it gets auto denied 🙂

The passive aggressive thing is unfortunately the best way to go 😞

@theanand, how do I setup auto-deny? I couldn't find any option for that?

when you setup a meeting there is an option

Unfortunately, the problem is still not resolved. My admin has turned off this permission setting. The only way is creating OOO, but that's not the case always, right? I have synced my personal calendar with work, and when something is booked in my personal calendar, it will be marked as busy in my work calendar. Yet, my team is booking those slots without even using the "Find a time" option 🤦
