Thoughts on asking Timings

[Deleted]

So I have assumed that when asking timings we should also be specifying the year.

So if you ask "Will X contact me by Feb 1st" and X contacts you in march 2018 its still technically before Feb 1st(2019) so the reading would be correct.

But if you ask "Will X contact me by Feb 2018" and X contacts you in march 2018 then the reading is wrong.

Am I over complicating things?

No, you’re not overcomplicating imo.

Timing is hard, so having a very specific question with little room to wiggle helps from my experience.
