When your alarm goes off do you hit the snooze button? How many times a week do you snooze?

My "internal alarm", pet, spouse/partner or some other outside force usually wakes me.

Do you snooze?

Post by ph4ever »

I rarely snooze. I pretty much hate the snooze alarm. If I were to ever meet the person that invented the snooze button I'd probably curse them out or hit them. If they were already dead I'd spit on their grave

Poll Foul...no option for "Boobies".

But, I snooze just about every work day. I try not to set my alarm on weekends.

My alarm is set for 7:30 am. That doesn't mean I get up then. Sometimes I lay there saying inside my head, "GET UP. GET UP. GET UP !!!". :oops:

I rarely set my alarm during the week - my wife usually wake me and I snooze as much as I can. On the weekend, we usually have early hockey games for the kids/me so I set my alarm and get up immediately. I get up earlier on the weekends than I do during the week.

At least that's all the voice inside your head is saying. It could be saying much worse. 8)

At home I don't need an alarm to wake me. My internal clock kicks me out of bed around 7 am.

On the road I use a backup system of alarm clocks and wake-up calls. If I'm using an alarm to get me up, it's because I have to get out of bed. I can't picture setting an alarm for a wake-up time that would allow me to use a snooze button. That would just be cutting into my quality sack time.

On a related note, have you ever tried to set up one of those baffling, hypermodern cubes that hotels insist are really clock radio/ CD players? I usually give up in frustration.

My alarm is the most annoying thing I've ever heard! I don't "do" mornings and it has to be loud and obnoxious just to wake me up. Then I beat up on it when I hit snooze at least 3 times every morning. It's set for 5:00 and I'm lucky to make it out of bed before 5:30. Considering changing it to 4:45 to get me to work on time but why?

Never. I generally beat the alarm itself, and sometimes I wake up before the cat wakes me.

I'm pretty much thinking I better not hit the snooze button anymore.

I actually set my alarm for an earlier time because I know I'll hit that button at LEAST once.
The only times I spring out of bed unaided are - leaving for vacation days, ticket buying days, and concert days.
