Millennial (1984) here. Alexa wakes me up every morning, unless I'm traveling or sleeping on the couch then it's my phone. I do still have an alarm clock on the nightstand but only so I don't have to turn on my phone to see what time it is in the middle of the night.

As opposed to the boomer who is, as we speak, getting swindled out of her life savings because she fell in love with a fictitious person living abroad (who is really a Nigerian scammer). Seriously, your fucked up generation needs to just stop trying to make fun of people younger than yourselves. You had the whole fucking world handed to you on a silver platter and you've done nothing but fuck it up for your kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. |

I still use a Sony Dream Machine alarm clock/radio. It must be almost 25 years old by now. I was dismayed to learn Sony stopped making them in the early 2010's.

Quote HistoryQuoted: My parents still use this  they are 73 and 75https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7022/6621355081_4a6c618d54_b.jpg My alarm clock is my toddler's. Set everyday for 7am wake up jumping onto me. I am 75 and have clock radio like that. One of the benefits of being retired is I seldom have to use the alarm clock. The funny thing is I almost always wake up just before six. Might have something to do with the alarm being set for 5:55 for over 20 years.

late for work? poor clock punchers, especially those with commutes.
I don't clock in or out, I work from home, and I don't even fill out a time sheet anymore. All my bosses care about is if work gets done. My work does get done, and they are happy with it, and they pay me a very nice paycheck. |

Hell that's nothing GF was part of training for a fortune 100 food company and the girl that did the initial orientation for the new hires passed this gem along to the rest of the trainers.
Trainer finished up a session and then said " take a break be back in the room by quarter of 2." Hardly anyone knew what that meant. She needed to have a training session on reading the wall clocks since most used the digital format.

I'm 43, and I haven't used a dedicated alarm clock in 10+ years.
My phone, tablet and watch all have the same (obnoxious) alarm set - and all three are on my nightstand, when I hit the rack. Redundancy like a motherfucker.  |

That's a quarter to 2. A quarter of two can also be interpreted as just one quarter of the second hour, or 1:15. Which is, after all, what was actually said. And which is, after all, how it works in other places. Not that the people who say such shit have had much exposure to a wider world. "Quarter of two" meaning a quarter before two seems to be a uniquely regional American thing, like how a Seven Up can become a Coke. This isn't about reading a clock, this is about english grammar. |
