Meanwhile, there's no question that more than one guy ever has gotten mixed up trying to figure out what time 20 is and missed the appointment by an hour or two.

This needs citation since I seriously doubt someone could misinterpret the basic '20=8pm' even if that someone exclusively uses nothing but 12hrs clock. A quick googling will give that '20=8pm' part Misinterpreting the missing AM vs. PM part however, does happen from time to time.

Your team leader is a mentalist for thinking it's acceptable to arrange a meeting for 9:30pm on a Saturday night and if anyone on your team would have attended it if they'd known the time, they are too. What a freak.

It could hardly be classified as job meeting tbqh. It was more like a small 10-minute chitchat you had during morning breakfast with your parents / spouse / kids telling each other what you were going to do that day. That's why the team agreed to that because the alternative was basically "CrunchTime!"
