> Anything outside work hours doesn't need to be on a calendar.
Can't edit original, but what I meant there is that it doesn't need to be on a calendar that work has access to (if the event is outside working hours).
For things on weekends I put those on my personal calendar. But that's clear-cut separation since no work event will ever be there.
The conflict is only for personal events during work hours. For those I put the blank placeholder in work calendar to block out the time.

Can you block out the times on the work calendar to correspond with the actual booking in your personal calendar?
I'm happy that works for you, but for me or anyone else who can be absent minded sometimes, that does. not. work. I need a calendar to remember promises I've made to people about when and where I'll be. Tuesday I'm meeting a friend to catch up in person, Thursday I've got a birthday dinner to go to, there's a show on Friday that I have tickets to. Stack multiple events in a single night if you have a busy social life. That's not a ton of information to remember but human memory is imperfect, and that sort of information is in one ear and out the other for me.
Prior to pocket computers, I'd have a paper datebook to carry around (and lose), but thanks to modern technology, it's stored in the cloud and accessible for me at https://calendar.google.com.
