Default OT? Perhaps. Are You A Heavy Sleeper?

Is your alarm clock loud enough to wake you in the morning? I know a
fellow who was so hard to wake that he took a lamp timer and a 120 volt
10" fire bell to use as his wake up alarm. I believe it spooked the
neighbors too. This is a link to a video of steps one guy took to wake
himself up in the morning. ^_^

I used to set 5 alarms all over the bedroom. I even begged people to call
me. They wouldn't. Some years later, I heard of a service that would call
you for a fee. I probably would have used them too!

My schedule was such that I might be working late one day and early the
next. No set days off. So I was constantly sleep deprived.

Things are much better now. I only set three alarms most days but I do take
them to bed with me. If I don't have to be up and somewhere, then I only
set one alarm. I take it to bed with me too. The alarms are right next to
my pillow.
