Rightly or wrongly, when you just use the name of the day rather than
the date the reminder is picking up the NEAREST day to the current day
(irrespective of whether future or past) . You have a couple of
options to avoid this. Firstly use dates instead of names. Secondly,
use "next" in front of the name. If you want to cut down on key
presses with the second option you only need to use the first three
letters of the day name e.g. thu. Regarding whether it's reasonable to
get a reminder ahead of a start date; in my view yes it is. You might
want to do some preparatory work ahead of starting the task, even if
it's just thinking about it.
