my strategy is to schedule calls early in the day to get them over with, or stay up super late the night before so i wake up an hour or so before the call. this has been awesome for my sleep schedule being unemployed and interviewing a lot lately...
Does anyone actually have a working stratergy to pick up calls consistantly? I always have silent mode on (vibrate enabled) because I'm scared if I enable call sounds I will forget to turn it off when it really needs to be off.
BTW, you can set a do not disturb schedule on your phone to automatically silence it. I even do location and consciousness-based routines for my phone. That way if I'm asleep or at work, my phone automatically silences itself, and then turns the ringer back on once I wake/leave work. Every modern phone has this capability.

Must be that extra "m" that's slowing them down. ☝🏼

Me watching the map on the doordash app when a delivery is coming because often times they do stupid shit.
Just the other day, an uber driver went around the block in like three different ways so I walked out to the cross street and flagged them down.

Waiting for my crush to text back (they're at work)

Most of the time I ignore the vibration.

My strategy is to simply don't. If it's important, you can text or leave a voicemail.
One benefit of never picking up the phone is that I never get spam calls ever.
