I've always thought of you as a low end, low quality, but working device. Nothing special, but you get the job done when we need something microwaved. Well today you astounded me, when I unexpectedly discovered an incredibly useful, yet simple, feature.
My roommate was preparing dinner, and using the timer on the microwave. I was unaware of this, and went to use the microwave. Without really thinking, I simply put in my mug of milk (heating it up for some delicious hot chocolate), typed in some numbers and pressed start. My roommate quickly noticed and was mildly annoyed at the way I had no apparently inconvenienced him by ruining his timer.
But lo and behold, when the microwave beeped, it said "end" only for a brief moment. Instead of staying at "end-o'clock" (a joking way we have of pointing out someone annoyingly left it saying end so it's not displaying the time), it quickly changed back to resume the timer, being at precisely the time remaining it would have been at had no interruption happened.
Thank you for having this very simple multi-tasking ability.
