I message my wife when I get to work and when I'm leaving. So somewhere between an hour and 7 or 8 depending on exactly when in my day I get nabbed for her to notice.
My work colleagues would probably try to call me if I didn't turn up (I've fallen off my bike before so they might suspect that) but I don't think they would put out a police report immediately if I just didn't turn up one morning.
My wife is very protective of me for some odd reason. She likes to joke about how I should watch out for nets (I'm a fish?). If I don't turn up somewhere she'll call me in less than an hour. We both work from home (when I'm employed that is) so we're always around each other. It's rare that I go anywhere unless I have to travel for work, and that has typically not been a lot.
I also have a home automation platform where I do location tracking and plot us on a map. If I were to fall off, it'd be pretty noticeable.
I'm guessing if anyone were to snatch me, they'd get an hour head start before wifey started chasing them down with a shotgun. Kinda nice to think that someone is looking out for me. I guess all that box chowing has paid off.
