On a submarine, a guy who was always late relieving the watch, snores, hard hitter, always late; we tied a work boot to his schwantz with 24" of twine, the floor was 27 inches down. Set it on his stomach after the third waking attempt.
Two or three times and is brain was retrained, problem solved. Want me to call Mrs. AWSX or are you good? 
Should also consider sleep apnea. Talk to your doctor.
I use an app called timely that uses some obsure Melody that wakes me a low setting. This coming from a man that sleeps through smoke alarms
11pm-5am last night. The bed shaker in my pillow works pretty well. Still working on the snoozing part and getting up on the first alarm, but I was out of bed by 5:30, so not too bad. Going to try putting the alarm base as far away as the cord for the bed shaker allows.

Do NOT hit the snooze button. Just let it vibrate until you sit up and then turn it off. If you turn it off still laying down, you will go back to sleep. It also helps if you set up the alarm’s secondary to go off again in case that happens.
And are you sure you're getting good sleep, as well as enough of it? Do you wake up multiple times a night? Do you have to get up and pee halfway through?
I didn't realize just how badly chronic fatigue was affecting me until I got my sleep apnea diagnosed and improved via CPAP.

I RARELY wake up in the middle of the night. Once I'm out I'm pretty much a rock till morning.

Try again tomorrow! ;)
I'm pretty sure I can't think of a worse way to wake up, holy crap.
I SUCK at waking up. I use the "I Can't Wake Up" app, set up with a bar code on the other side of the room. Unfortunately I'm finding that I'm sleeping through it lately. Thinking about one of those sunrise alarm clock things as I do wake up readily when it gets light out.
