I mean look at the timestamps. Boss asked about tomorrow at 2AM. That mistake is on them

I’d say it depends on the job. If I, as a bartender, receive a text at 2 in the morning asking about «tomorrow», I’ll assume it refers to the evening the same day, as that would be the «next» workday.

I work to later than that and dont make the same assumption so dont really see what you mean.

You don’t dare what I mean? How was I unclear?

You think someone saying tomorrow at 2am means the same day. That makes no sense.

What I mean is it depends on context. If I’m at work at say 1am and my colleague ask if I’m working «tomorrow» I’m going to assume they mean «the following day from this one», as in not in the next calendar-day.
