  • I don't wear a watch, especially not while I'm busy in the kitchen
  • My phone is usually on my pocket, and it's easier to just turn my head than to reach into my pocket, pull out my phone, and turn it on. And also wash my hands if, again, I'm doing kitchen stuff in the kitchen.
  • The microwave is in the kitchen, which is a different room than the living room.

    You sound way too reasonable. What's the catch?

    My microwave and oven clocks are never correct because I don't use them.

    That sounds like a "you" problem.

    I wear a watch so it's not a problem. Actually, what IS a problem is that my microwave is also a convection over / air fryer but they didn't put sufficient thermal insulation around the electronics/display, so the display is slowly getting cooked and the LED segments keep dying one after another. It's becoming difficult to see how much time is remaining when I cook stuff.

    Is this a thing?!

    Some of the LED segments on my 15-year-old microwave stopped working so now I can't tell the difference between 5s and 6s.

    I figured the wiring was a dud and just came loose after so many years. Maybe I need to pull out my tinfoil hat!

    Sounds like your real problem is that you bought a piece of garbage.

    It was the highest rated microwave + convection oven I could find. Maybe a good one doesn't exist.

    Does your stove not have a clock? They're fairly standard now
