When I used to work in a 24/7 environment I would quip that "it's not tomorrow until the morning crew takes over." In a lot of practical situations I think it's easier for people to think about the early morning hours as being late the previous day. It tends to match shifts and reporting cycles better.

- soneil 6y agoIt's not tomorrow until I've been to sleep. It's not the morning until I've had a cup of coffee. Time is incredibly subjective. Clocks need to agree, but nomenclature does not.
