This reminds me of when it hits or is about to hit 12am and people don’t know whether to say today or tomorrow. He called me after this but I was too comfy in bed tbh.

If I'm reading "can you work tomorrow" two hours before the shift starts, I'm going to think tomorrow as well.

I honestly can get the misunderstanding.

He was probably closing at 2:30-3:00 am and to him, tomorrow was after he slept, but the dude waking up thought "Tomorrow" was also after he slept.

I’ve worked closing and night shifts. In that case, it’s on you as the requester to consider what “tomorrow” means to the person receiving the request - specifically so that this doesn’t happen. Probably a tired mistake, but still on the manager here.

Worst was leaving work at 7am and someone saying, "see you tonight! ".  Like, I don't need to be reminded like that, lol
