I know I'm getting upset at a shitty picture, but driving distractions are a dick move
Why don't people just put DND on their phone? Let them pile up and check them when it's safe to.
Audio book goes on. Phone goes under the books on my front seat and doesn't come out... There is literally nothing so important it can't wait 20-30 minutes for me to get where I'm going.
People need to learn that it's okay to not be available 24/7
For about 10 years now my phone has been on do not disturb. Not just while I'm driving, but just always. The only exception to the DND is my mom, who until about a month ago when she passed, I was caregiving for, and genuinely needed to be able to get her calls regardless of what was going on. I don't get notifications for anything, and I don't see calls when they're actually happening. Need me, send a text and I'll see the little thing in the notification shade maybe. Lol.
Because I'm not caregiving for my mom anymore, I'm on the job hunt and have had to turn do not disturb off so if I get a call for an interview I can answer it. I hate it so much. Constant scam/spam calls, telemarketers, et cetera. It suuuucks. Obviously, it's not the worst thing about all this, but it certainly doesn't help matters
That's another big one. My phone goes on DND from 10PM every night to 8AM. Only exceptions are my wife and parents. Glad to say I've carefully curated who gets my phone number and I never answer for unknowns, for the ones that get though, my provider and phone assistant screen the rest.
Even work texts, I don't answer them until I'm ready. Timely response does not mean immediate. My time is mine, not my job's. They're buying my time from me to do work, not the other way around.
Yeah, if you have dependents, DND is a no-go. This includes if you have children.
These Garfield Minus Garfield cartoons keep on getting more and more relevant. It's like they read my mind!
