A New Jersey Man Has Invented The World's Most Annoying Alarm Clock

here is no snooze button. If you unplug it, a battery takes over. As wake-up time approaches, you cannot reset the alarm time. It could be the world's most exasperating alarm clock.

Once it goes off, to stop it you must get out of bed, go into the kitchen or bathroom, and punch the day's date into a telephone-style keypad. That's the only way to stop the loud 'ding-ding,' designed to sound like a customer angrily banging on a concierge bell at a hotel. http://www.businessinsider.com/a-new...m-clock-2012-4

People need to learn to go to bed when they need to sleep so that they can wake up unassisted. No job is worth losing sleep over.

When I was working as a breakfast announcer, I would set up two alarm clocks. One was near the bed, and the second was in another room. The second was also one of those old wind-up clocks, so there was no likelihood of a battery going flat and no alarm occurring, although I had to remember to wind the thing every night.

At some radio stations - usually the cap. city ones running 24 hours - it was one of the overnight announcer's tasks to phone the breakfast program staff and wake them up. (Very civilised.)

When I started as an apprentice watchmaker(dub: slave labourer) Boss came in late. Mostly often as late as 2 PM.. He was also doing his own business as a manufacturing jeweller from home at night. He told me that on the mornings he needed to be here earlier.. he had three alarm clocks, all in metal buckets on wooden boxes.

If I felt very tired before hitting the sack, I'd put my 'remote' alarm clock into a metal saucepan, with the top (of the saucepan) aimed at my bedroom door. It would wake the dead when it went off.

He also told me that it wasn't so long ago that he could have tied me to the leg of the bench to make sure I awakened him.
