Time Difference

I have the following setup: appt=# select * from availability \g emp_id | date | start_time | end_time --------+------------+------------+---------- 1 | 2000-10-30 | 08:00:00 | 14:30:00 appt=# select * from appointments \g start_time | end_time | emp_id | cus_id | services | date ------------+----------+--------+--------+----------+------------ 09:00:00 | 11:30:00 | 1 | 2 | {1,2,3} | 2000-10-30 Now, what I would like to get is the following: start_time | end_time ------------+---------- 08:00:00 | 09:00:00 11:30:00 | 14:30:00 I'm trying to generate a result set of all the free time slots in availability by taking the difference of the two. I've so far been unable to generate anything that works. Is this possible?
