In all seriousness I usually set mine for :08 or :13 or other weird intervals or something like that. I have to assume this is from some habit where the snooze button was 10 minutes and if I set them like D3 they all piled up and snoozed at once

Eleventy:seven PA

The snooze button is your frenemy

5:05, 6:05, 7:05. The 05s are great.

Every 15 minutes

I always wake up on a prime minute to set the tone for the day

12 minute intervals. With the 9 min snooze cycle, you end up with an alarm after every 3 min and eventually get off the bed in 30 min after the first alarm :p

I never set mine where the minute is divisible (without fractions) by 5 or 2.

The real question is do you use the alarm on your phone or do you do it old school?

Always do 12, 21, 31, 42, or 53

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female.

Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?

Would you rather try to get promoted/climb the career ladder or try and grow your side hustle into a larger enterprise while working your day job? I’m at a point where I’m very comfortable where I am and ready to move on to higher paying but more stressful roles. At the same time I’m also pursuing a side hustle that can be lucrative if done correctly but comes with more risks. Would you 1.) try and get promoted while pursuing a side hustle or 2.) stay in current role and focus on side hustle?
