| Enheduanna | posted 24-Feb-2006 3:21pm My alarm clock works just fine and has the added benefits of being a radio and having a snooze button. |
| blondie20 | posted 24-Feb-2006 3:43pm No, I don't need a wake-up service. |
| busybaker | posted 24-Feb-2006 4:54pm No, I don't need a wake-up service because I am the wake-up service in my household. I wake up my husband, wake up the kids, blah, blah, blah. I'm up before anyone, with the exception of some of the pets. |
| longhaultrucker | posted 24-Feb-2006 7:37pm At times if it were free, but when i'm asleep most of the time i do not hear the phone ring, when my dispatcher calls 40 times a day, i don't want to hear it when i'm asleep, so he threatened to write me up, so now i sleep with the cell phone 3 inches from my ear on the pillow |
| IncredibAl | posted 24-Feb-2006 8:57pm Nah, I tend to wake up sooner than I need to get up anyway, plus the fact that alarm clocks are easy enough to use (except when you really need them, and then something goofs up). |
| llamamama | posted 24-Feb-2006 9:00pm No, I don't want anyone waking me up..Ever.. |
| RGirl | posted 24-Feb-2006 9:44pm Yes. I would definitely pay some one to come in my house and pull me out of bed and prop me up in the shower. Then, maybe, I'd be able to stay out of the bed for the rest of the day. |
| darkshadowsseeker | posted 24-Feb-2006 11:30pm No, I have an alarm clock. |
| southernyankee | posted 24-Feb-2006 11:46pm No. What a retarded idea |
| bcollins | posted 25-Feb-2006 12:27am I own an alarm clock. |
| RGirl | (reply to southernyankee) posted 25-Feb-2006 1:15am SY, sometimes, for some people, an alarm clock isn't enough. If I don't fall asleep for the first half hour it goes off, I will try to do the math in my sleepy head and press snooze about 10 times thinking I'm ok. And I'm talking walking across the room to press snooze. I hate waking up & it takes me several minutes to figure out what the hell is going on.
Sometimes my girlfriend is there to pull me out. |
| southernyankee | (reply to RGirl) posted 25-Feb-2006 1:30am Ayyyaaayyaa!! The trick to get around the alarm clock snooze is to make your alarm loud enough to wake your ass up but too far to reach. Or at least put some barricade between yourself and the clock. That way you have to get UP to reach it, and then you won't go back to sleep. The loophole with the phone would be to just hang up or knock the phone off the hook or lie and say that you're getting up. Having a gf/bf/spose wake your ass up would be the ideal and beat all of these except that many people dont have gf/bfs. Allthough it would be kinda creepy having a friend come over to get you up. |
| RGirl | (reply to southernyankee) posted 25-Feb-2006 1:44am I DO get up & walk across the room to the snooze, but I'm not really awake and just stumble back to bed, usually thinking something stupid like, I'm just gonna lay here for a minute. I'm hopeless. |
| Amanda | posted 25-Feb-2006 3:24am No. I don't need a wake-up service. I use an alarm clock. And, if that fails, I've got a 6 year old! |
| ROCKMAN | posted 25-Feb-2006 8:52am I don't need one. I'm up early every day anyway and am not on any set time schedual. |
| Maarten | posted 25-Feb-2006 2:25pm No, I don't need one. I have an alarm clock and a cell phone. |
| Zang | posted 25-Feb-2006 4:46pm No, I already own an alarm clock. |
| cloudhugger | posted 27-Feb-2006 2:05am I sleep till I wake up. |

| busybaker | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 27-Feb-2006 4:15am No, but I do everything else. |
| mve17 | posted 27-Feb-2006 8:53am What happened to good old fashioned alarm clocks? |
| tpstocks | posted 27-Feb-2006 10:44am I asked this question because I am one of those people who sleeps straight through an alarm clock. Sometimes I am a 'Snooze Queen', depending on the alarm. Either way, the only thing that wakes me up without fail is a ringing telephone: I sit up, wide awake, and apparently I answer in two rings or less. |
| RGirl | (reply to tpstocks) posted 27-Feb-2006 8:09pm I think its a great question. I have the same problems. Unfortunately I respond even less favorably to ringing phone. |
| teatree | posted 27-Feb-2006 8:42pm No, that's why God made alarm clocks and cats. |
| cerealkiller | posted 28-Feb-2006 2:26am Wouldn't work. We only have one phone jack - in the kitchen. Strange for a house under 20 yrs old. Bedrooms are upstairs. And, my wife hates portable phone and smashes them anytime I buy one. |
| eloradanan | posted 5-Jun-2006 12:36am I have an alarm clock that gets me out of bed just fine. |
| clare | posted 31-Aug-2006 9:14pm No, I'm not willing to pay for a service that I can get from my alarm clock or the alarm function on my cell phone. I have better uses for my money than this. |
