When you wake up and your feet hit the floor…what is…?

the first thing you do after you get up?
pee, smoke a ciggerette, turn on the tv, punch the alarm clock? What?

Workman’s Comp – Alarm Clock

I have an employee that claims when he turned off his alarm clock that he hurt his neck. He thought he just had a crick in his neck so ignored it and went on with his day. By the time he got to work it started to really bother him, and by the time he left (about 4-5 hrs later) he went to the doctor. He called back later that day and said he had pinched a nerve and sprung a vertebrae when he turned off his alarm clock that morning, and that the doctor said he could not do any heavy lifting. (We are a vault service so thats the job requirement, and know how to drive) so we’d have to give him Workman’s Comp till he recovers

But is that even possible just by moving the little switch on an alarm clock? Because he’s not the most trustworthy employee and definably not the most honest…

I can't seem to get to work on time.. Help!!!?

Okay, i’ve been at my job for 2 years now.. i’ve always had a hard time getting up for work and I’m that employee who barely walks in the door on time every morning. I don’t know why or how but I can’t seem to get up in the mornings!!

I usually go to bed between 10:30-11pm and get up (fighting the alarm clock) around 7:15am. I know that’s a lot of sleep. so I thought maybe I was getting too much sleep… so I tried staying up later and getting up at the same time.. I’ve bought countless amounts of alarm clocks, had friends give wake up calls, i’ve tried everything!!! I still have a hard time waking up in the morning.. To explain that further, it’d be easy for me to get up if i actually woke up when my alarm went off.. but i kinda barely wake up and hit snooze/off, and then fall back asleep.. so i wasn’t ever really awake completely to understand that i was hitting the off button.. I also have a regular alarm clock to wake me up and my cell phone alarm…. whats wrong with me? I’m about to loose my job if I am late again…. I don’t know what’s wrong with me…

Its weird cause i never had this many problems getting to school…

Does anyone know where I can buy something that wakes me up in the morning by punching me?

I always get up late every morning. Alarm clock doesn’t work for me but if someone touches me I get up quickly. Anyone has any idea where I can get something that wakes me up by punching me right on my face or stomach?

How do I set the time zone on my Sharp SPC384D Atomic Clock?

A couple of years ago, I bought a Sharp SPC384D bedside alarm clock, which gets time signals from the NIST atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado, which is THE legal standard for time keeping in the US. Recently, I had to change the batteries. As you might expect, the current time and date were wiped out when I did so. Once the new batteries were in place, I was able to reset the time and date without any real problems. I was not able, however, to reset the clock for the Central time zone, which is where I am living. I’ve lost or mislaid the instructions for this silly thing, and I can’t find any kind of website or online information about this clock, except where to buy it. Does anyone have a copy of the instructions for this clock, or can anybody tell me hoe to reset this clock for the Central time zone? Thanks in advance!

How did people wake up on time without alarm clocks?

God knows I can barely even wake up with an alarm clock next to my head.

How did people wake up by themselves before alarm clocks?

Any suggestions on teaching a child about how our lives revolve around the clock and time?

My youngest just turned six and is in Kindergarten. We have the most difficult time getting her to understand the clock/time, and why it’s important to … have her bath by a certain time; leave the house for school by a certain time; get in bed by a certain time so she’ll be well rested; get up in the morning and get moving to be to school on time, etc.
I’ve even considered getting her an alarm clock to set in the evening for her bathtime; then set it for story time, and then set again for bedtime.
But regardless, she has no interest in watching the clock; and it makes no difference to her if she’s late, which seems to make it more difficult to use as a teaching tool.

WIVES: Would you give your husband a hard time if he got a text message at 1 a.m. from his female employee, 19?

…wishing him a happy new year? Seems innocent enough. I normally don’t text message, or use my phone for anything but business, but my wife was using my phone as an alarm clock when it went off. Then pretty much made my life miserable all morning.

Are you jealous like that, over nothing?

How did people wake up in time for work before Alarm clocks?!?

This has been driving me nuts.. without an alarm clock I will naturally sleep for 11-14 hours. How the hell were people ever on time for anything before the alarm clock? I looked up alarm clocks.. and the first retail alarm clock was not available until 1847!
What about people in cities.. no roosters.
