With technology and all, many clocks change automatically now. How many did you have to still adjust manually?
Outside - 1 (sprinklers)
Kitchen - 2 (oven and microwave)
Bedrooms - 2 (wall clocks)
Cars - 2, but we just have to turn off the DST button, so does that really count as manually adjusting?

None, but I haven’t been in my car yet. I think it’s the only click I have right now.

We have a wall clock in the kitchen.
Plus the clock on our coffee maker.
That’s all I can think of.

0.
I intensely dislike clocks and don’t keep any in my home. We just turn the microwave to the display off option, so it’s just dark/blank when not in use.
Car and phones adjust automatically.
I think DH might have to manually do the one in his truck, but that’s not me.

Oven, microwave, coffee maker, furnace thermostat, and landline phones (have them as cell service is awful where we live).
So 5.

2, the one on the oven and the 1 in my car. Technically I could also adjust the one on my thermostat but I never change it since I never look at it.

The stove and the wall clock in my bedroom. One car later today which is easy and doesn't require looking anything up as the hour and minute button are next to the clock on the dash.
So, the answer is three.

7-I have wall clocks in every room plus the microwave. I hate not being able to look up and see what time it is.
I have a friend who doesn’t have any clocks in her house. I’m convinced this is why she’s never on time for anything and her kids don’t have a normal kid bedtime.

Two battery operated clocks in my kitchen. I never change the one in my car, I just always know it's an hour one way or another. I have never set the clock on my microwave as I can't see it over in the corner anyway.

I will have to change six. Microwave, oven, digital air fryer, small analog desk clock, DH’s alarm clock and my analog watch. Seven if you include the big dog, who got me up at 6:19 to go pee and be fed.

Oven, microwave, thermostat (the old one adjusted, this one doesn't), clock in bathroom, alarm clock, clock above fireplace (has a pendulum). I can't remember if my current vechile switches, I don't think so, it doesn't with time zones. So 7.

Forgot about their internal clocks. Isn't it funny how they know when it's feeding or walk time. I have been know to play possum in the morning . . . |

Three wall clocks, the thermostat, stove and two cars. Thankfully, the cars are easy unlike one of the previous cars.

A satellite or wifi changes the clock in my car automatically.

I’m convinced this is why she’s never on time for anything and her kids don’t have a normal kid bedtime. Can’t most people just look at their phone to see the time? I just really, really can’t stand random lights and random sounds, so no clocks. A clock ticking is one of the worst sounds I can think of. I don’t struggle with chronic lateness or time management though 🤷🏻♀️ |

I think DH might have to manually do the one in his truck, but that’s not me. Can I ask why you dislike clocks so much? Never really knew anyone who did not want to see a clock in their home. ETA - Sorry, just saw your post above. ETA #2 - I don’t always carry my phone around the house with me. And little kids don’t usually have phones, so we had clocks for our boys. |
