        Just drink a ton of vodka. You’ll never have to worry about waking up before your alarm goes off.

          I really hate that I can’t get a lie in on the weekend. Kids wake up and my brain wakes up. I’ll have to start going to bed earlier…which I hate. I want to stay up and play video games and wake up late. But I guess I’m becoming an old man and need to embrace the old man life.

          I hate it when I wake up with a panicked feeling of amyway. I broke up with Amy like 6 years ago now and she still haunts my dreams.

    I don’t think there’s a bigger bliss in this world than waking up randomly at night, looking over at the clock and realizing it’s still early as fuck so you can go back to sleep 🤤

      There is, it’s waking up early thinking you’re late to work / school only to realize you’ve woken early and today is your day off

        Me when I have morning meetings, every time without fail. I specifically ask people don’t schedule shit until 10AM because of this, and most people are chill with it, thankfully.

          cross time zone teams means my pointless standup meetings are either set at sharp 9 am or even earlier, fucking bullshit.

              I had team members outside of the US, hopefully my next job is better, but with all the outsourcing these days, I have little hope of even landing a job,let alone one where everyone I need to work with is local

    I used to need a bunch of them, then I got old and started going to bed at 9 almost every night and now I wake up within five minutes of 7 o clock EVERY day.

    Probably would have been that way all along if not for all the drugs and alcohol I guess

      Hint: it wakes up so punctually because it can hear the mice scratching in the walls, who are reacting to your boiler starting to heat the pipes at 7am sharp.

      Yes, he knows when I’m in that deep sleep like 30-60m before my alarm goes off, so that when I give him the boot I don’t have enough time to go back to bed for any meaningful sleep.

    If I don’t get up before 8:30am or so, my husky will softly grumble until I get up. The grumbles get progressively louder.

    The trick is to figure out how long you sleep naturally and go to sleep that amount of time before you need to wake up. Doesn’t work for insomniacs unfortunately.

    I don’t need an alarm.

    I wake up every few hours regardless.

    And I’m always awake about 20 minutes before my alarm, no matter that time I set it to.

    Existence is pain

      Set your alarm to 20 minutes after you want to wake up. Come on, that was easy.

        I’ve legitimately tried that, even tried no alarm at all.

        The no alarm is a bad idea just because every so often I just sleep right on through, if I’ve had a particularly harsh day.

        I think my brain just goes “you sneaky fuck, I know you REALLY want to get up at 7 so we are getting up at 630ishjust to be sure.”

    That’s basically everyone with a decent routine, no? I go to bed the same time, so I wake up the same time. The alarm is just for backup.

    If anyone has trouble sleeping/waking with a set routine, there’s probably other factors at play like interrupted sleep cycles or sleep apnea.
