Wait till you hear how Japan does things. If something closes at 1a or 2a, quite often the signage says 2500 or 2600 instead of 0100 or 0200 to denote that it’s a holdover from the previous day.
Japanese work culture. If you're not working 26 hours per day, you're a slacker.

Back in the day I used this hack the first time I implemented a scheduling system. Made the math a ton easier.
Wait, but then what time does it roll over into the new day at? Does it go 29:00 -> 06:00?
It’s not an “official” thing and usually rolls over based on the business.
So let’s say one business opens at 10a and closes at 4a every day, they’ll say 10:00-28:00
But let’s say a different company opens at 3a and closes at 10p, they’ll say 03:00-22:00
You’ll notice that there isn’t an “official” reset of time, it’s only used when a business carries over past midnight till whenever they close the next day. You don’t really find anything going past about 4a though.
Oh I see
