Online alarm clock for 3:08 pm
Hand the remaining work to your replacement now, then use a 3:08 pm alarm as the signal to leave for home before the evening traffic builds. That gives you a clear departure point without watching the clock through the final part of the shift. If the handover takes longer than expected, 4:00 pm is the next natural checkpoint, but it may put your drive closer to the busy commuter period.
Keep this alarm page open while you finish explaining the job, and leave your phone or computer awake with the sound set high enough to hear nearby. If you close the browser or let the device sleep, the alarm cannot warn you to leave before the traffic; it only works while the page remains active. A quick glance at the running display before returning to the handover confirms that the intended 3:08 pm time is still set.
Once the handover is finished, consider how the afternoon light will change during the drive home. At this hour, bright sun can sit low across some roads, especially on a westward route. Put sunglasses within reach and adjust the sun visor before pulling away, so you are not searching for either after joining traffic. If the car has been parked in full sun, allowing a moment for the windscreen and cabin to clear can also make departure less distracting.
Common questions
Does the alarm work if my laptop goes to sleep?
Not reliably. If the device sleeps or the screen locks, the browser tab pauses along with it, so the alarm may not fire on time or at all. Adjust your power settings if you're relying on this over a longer stretch.
Do I need to create an account or download anything?
No, there's nothing to sign up for and nothing to install. Pick a time and a sound, press Start, and it runs entirely in this browser tab.
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.
