Sorry. An alarm starts when something bad happens, like a fire alarm for example. When you have an alarm going on each morning because you have to go to work, then work is something horrible.
Maybe the association came easier to me because my native language has a special word for “alarm clock” so I learned the term as an adult and have this association ever since and don’t take it for granted
Still don’t get it. There’s probably something obvious to you that I don’t share.
