Future Perfect with Time Clauses/Adverbs
I'd like to know which action came first in those sentences. Even though I know the future perfect references the first action, because of the time adverbs/clauses,I don't know which action came first.
When I go to Italy, I'll have been to 6 countries visited.
Does that mean:
I'll first go to Italy and then because of that, I'll have 6 countries visited on my list
Next month I'll have worked for the company for 7 years.
Does that mean:
I'll have worked here for 7 years before the next month comes?
I'll have left at the end of the month.
Does that mean
I'll leave before the end of the month?
