Etymology: "Reschedulers" is the plural of "rescheduler", a noun for a person who changes a schedule. The word is built from "reschedule" plus the suffix "-er", which attaches to verbs to name the one who performs the action. So a rescheduler is someone who reschedules, and the plural simply counts several such people. The base verb "reschedule" is itself a straightforward formation: the prefix "re-", meaning again or anew, joined to "schedule", which comes from Latin "schedula", a small strip of paper. Put together, "reschedule" means to plan again, usually to move an appointment or event to a new time.

Synonyms: postponers, delayers, rearrangers, rebookers, deferrers
