I'm just going to start not answering the phone unless it's a number in my contacts. If it's important they can leave me a message.
I've always done that. If it's not a contact, I let it go to voicemail. If it was actually important, they leave a message.
In this day and age, if it's actually important they'll probably immediately send you a text message/WhatsApp/etc. anyway.
It just dawned on me that I only ever get spam calls OR texts - never a call followed by a text. Seems like some form of success could be had with doing that.
Not that I want to give them any ideas – I assume they’ve already tried this and determined it wasn’t successful.
