Spin -poll - do you have a clock in the bathroom

[CdnCarrie]

Pretty self explanatory - clocks in bathroom! Wondering if I’m the odd one out.

Who spends that much time in the bathroom? I usually have my phone with me if I really need to know.

My DH, but no clock!

Oooof! There really ought to be more fiber in people's diet

Clock and Radio

 

[fla4fun]

I have one hanging on the wall opposite the bathroom mirror, so I can glance at it while I get ready for work. There are too many ways for my phone to get damaged from water or hard surfaces in there.

 

[Southernmiss]

Yes. Keeps me on time getting ready for work.

 

[quoo]

I guess technically I had one as a teenager but it was part of my amazing shower radio - which had terrible audio quality but I loved that thing.

 

[TippyThomas]

No.

 

[CynBeth]

No.

 

[Meriweather]

No

The two main bathrooms have clocks over the door so they can be seen from the entire bathroom, including the shower. No way I'm taking my phone into the shower! Powder room does not have a clock.
For decades (25 years) I worked overnight shift, up at 5 pm, so I had over 5 hours to get ready. When I moved to a more normal shift, I was up at 2 am, ate breakfast, shaved, brushed my teeth and out the door by 2:40 am to be at my desk at work at 3 am, so I had to keep an eye on the time. 14 of the last 16 weeks I worked remotely from home. Up at 2:50 am, logged in and ready to work at 3 am. I didn't get cleaned up until my lunch break.

Yes. Mine was in my grandmothers bathroom when I was growing up. When she passed it came to me...I think of her each time I see it.

 

[disykat]

Absolutely. It helps me keep on schedule if I'm drying my hair, etc. Mine is technically outside my bathroom since that's where my sink/vanity area is. I don't spend a lot of time on vanity, but I'm a stickler for being on time and do generally run a brush through my hair and brush my teeth as I'm heading out of the house to anything that has a start time so it seems like a logical place to want keep track of time.

 

[soccerdad72]

Not if you don’t count my Apple Watch, which I keep on the charger next to my sink when I’m getting ready.

 

[fly girl]

Yes, but I can only see it when I am in the shower to tell myself to get moving. As I am getting ready I look at my phone or FitBit, whichever is nearby.

I take a shower, brush the teeth, shave, sit on the throne, get dressed because it's weird not to when you are dad and raised 2 girls... I'm not addicted to the phone so it's not the first thing I pick up. It's the last thing I pick up before walking out the door so I don't have that for a clock.

Don't know about the fiber thing, but there's lots of cotton in my bathroom since that's where the laundry is, so I'm spending time in there doing laundry as well.

I can't believe you all only do one thing in the bathroom. There's lots of other things to do in there.

 

[ronandannette]

Yes. Keeps me on time getting ready for work.

I used to have one when DH and I kept different hours. Now he's up by the time I'm in the bathroom getting ready so I just play the radio to track along with the time.

 

[Mysterian]

No. I have some alarms on my phone in certain increments to keep me notified.

 

[Lilsia]

No. I don't feel the need for one. My routine is pretty set and I know how long it takes me to get ready.
