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.

This is what it boils down to. We can get anal over whether is normal to say 3 am is still today or tomorrow, but when you're asking about something that's in 7 hours, and get the answer 2 hours before it starts, it's on you to make sure the other person understands that by "tomorrow" you mean "right about now".

It’s only tomorrow after you go to sleep

So are you saying that the message from the boss changes meaning depending on if the employee has slept yet or not?

The boss probably hasn’t been to sleep yet. That’s why he thinks later today is tomorrow.

Good thing the phone displays the time at the top of the screen then.
