    Absolutely this. Not many people understand this, especially not my gen (x) or older. Here they’re all pavlov’ed to open the door when it rings or answer the phone. I never do that.

      I don’t answer the phone unless you are in my contacts list or I am specifically expecting a call.

      If someone calls and doesn’t leave a voicemail or text, then it isnt important.

      Filters out the junk (and often outright scam) calls.

        Exactly. The important people know how to reach me, all others simply aren’t.
