There's always a moment of panic when you wake up on a work day and the bedroom is slightly brighter than usual. It suggests that the sun is in a different position to when you normally wake up. The internal thought process usually goes along these lines.
- That's unusual, why is it so bright?
- What time is it?
- Wait, it's Friday, why am I not at work
- Wait, where's my phone?
It's at dialog point #4 when you realise the reason that you missed your alarm is because your phone (ie: your alarm clock) is missing.
I log into the "Find My Device" feature - The phone is still online, the location shows somewhere deep in LKF. At least it wasn't stolen. It's probably lying somewhere under a sofa or table. I go into the office and call the bar "Sorry, you'll have to wait until the club opens and ask the lost and found department".
Now I just need to wait until 11 pm for the bar to re-open to collect my phone. I embrace the feeling of not being bound to a smart phone. Technology and social freedom.
