Online alarm clock for 10:45 am
Pause the board-hire counter work long enough to set an alarm for 10:45 am, then return to checking the gear and paperwork. The signal gives you a clear point to break away from the task and hand over the shift before 11:00 am, without repeatedly watching the clock while customers are still returning boards.
A shift handover can happen beside chatting customers, scraping racks and staff moving equipment, so match the alarm tone to that setting. A softer sound may be enough when your phone is close and the counter is quiet; a more persistent tone suits a busy return period or a phone tucked behind the desk. Keep the volume audible above the shop noise and test it briefly if the handover cannot slip. This browser alarm relies on the page continuing to run and the phone staying awake, so closing the browser or letting the handset sleep could leave the shift handover without a signal.
Late-morning heat can build quickly around an Australian beachside hire point, while strong air conditioning indoors may make the change feel abrupt. Before 10:45 am, place any keys, forms and returned gear together where the incoming worker can see them. That keeps the handover brief and avoids another trip between the cool counter and a hot storage area.
Common questions
Can I change the alarm sound?
Yes, there's a short list of tones to choose from before you press Start. Pick whichever one you're most likely to actually hear — softer sounds are easier to sleep through than a firm chime or bell.
What happens once the alarm goes off?
It rings through your device's speakers on a loop until you stop it from this page. There's no separate app notification, so make sure your volume is turned up before you rely on it.
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
Can I use this on my phone instead of a laptop?
Yes, it works in a mobile browser the same way, but phones are more likely to lock the screen or sleep, which can stop the alarm from ringing. A laptop or desktop tends to be more reliable for this.
