Is this task too complex for you to handle without her having to do it?

Entergy has been installing metal poles in my area.

The clocks reset to blank. So they have stayed blank since it is a losing battle keeping them set.

Just do it yourself if it bothers you so much.

This is the correct answer.

Buy appliances that automatically sync to the internet.

requires the wife to care enough to change it herself

Good luck, as long as the debit card still works at Crumbl, Orange Theory, and Starbucks, she won't care. Which I know was your point.

I agree. I had to work out and do cardio for weeks to build up the endurance to change the time on my microwave. It’s just not worth it.

You can't do it yourself?

Our only digital ones are on the stove, the microwave, and in the car. All have been updated as of earlier today.

On the old GM vehicles I remember the clock just being a pain in the arse, like a VCR clock. Wasn't even worth trying to change it. Modern vehicles it is super simple and there's no excuse not to do it.
