They get worse every week.
|
|
|
|

But do they though? I think we should ask the audience...
Do these polls get worse each week?
- Yes
- No
- What is 'polls'??

If a person needs to get their weekly dose of bonding in a poll thread, they need to re-examine their life's mission statement.

Maybe you're only seeing part of the picture ...
Next week's poll will ask the big question of whether we have a ten minute snooze setting, a five minute snooze setting or no snooze setting at all.
Once the results are in on that one, a relatively simple cross-referencing of the two sets of data will tell us all an awful lot about the current state of IT industry sleeping patterns. Failing that, at least we'll be able to tell how many people have kids or cats.

I get in bed so early that it's impossible to oversleep.
In fact, I'm often up before sunrise and can fit some 4~6 hours of work before breakfast.

My internal body clock works like a charm, but I use alarm to abide late situation, I don't want to go late anywhere, so I try to settle my work as my schedules.

I also wake up a bit before my alarm starts ringing, but then I turn around and close my eyes.

The days when my wife feels nice to me and starts cooking bacon and coffee... then I don't need any alarm.
If not... see Sander Rossel's answer below

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Me and my missus cut the alarm very close to the departing time. 7:11 alarm, 7:30 we're in the car. We like to sleep every useful minute - it's a hbait that stayed with us since the horrible wakes at 5:15 AM.

But I usually wake up at the very first note of the alarm. Sometimes I wake up just a minute before the clock... but I can't rely on that.

But I still sleep through them...
I'm a very fast sleeper, I've been known to sleep through vacuum cleaners, people coming in my room, and even fire alarms.
So three alarms that go off at 06:57, 07:00, and 07:05, with ten minute snoozes, but my day at the office often starts at 10:00
Don't tell me to go to bed earlier too, I'll just sleep longer

I work anywhere between 8 to 10 hours a day, on average - usually 9 hours. What is your average work day hours? just curious.
|

I work 8 hours on average. That's what I signed for, what I get paid for, so that's what I work*.
If I start at 9 (which happens) I'm home early, if I start at 10:30 (which is really my latest) I'm home a little later
*Unless a deadline or issue requires me to stay longer of course.

Same problem.
I have 3 set on my phone.
And 2 alarm clocks, one next to me with the sound turned up to max (why the neighbors haven't complained yet I don't know) and one on the other end of the room, someone told me to do that so I'd have to get up to turn it off, the joke is on them, I just sleep through them all.
I wake up when I wake up, after 10 years I'v given up on trying to wake up at a set time.
The worst part of it is though, when I do have to wake up early (to catch a plane or go to some event I can't miss) I just don't sleep at all out of fear that I'll not wake up at all.
