ringtones were big there for a while, but now it seems everyone just leaves them on default.

Work or family doesn't need to reach you urgently or do you have a separate work phone or something

    I have one phone that I check every now and then to see if I missed anything. If anyone needs to reach me I'll see it when I see it and get back to them if it actually is important. Work doesnt need me if I'm off the clock. Also have notifications off on every app except my bank (and texts and calls) I have never feel more calm. Everything wants your attention these days

    I mean sometimes at work or in life there's something urgent. Outside of work I don't have to be immediately reachable but at work I really don't have that option because things wouldn't go anywhere not being able to reach others by phone.

    Not OP but same. I literally don’t remember my phone’s ringtone. Generally my phone is nearby and I check regularly for messages. Yes, calls and messages sometimes wait a few hours. I like it that way. I’ve never missed anything so important that I stopped silencing my phone and 99% of the communication I receive can wait till I’m ready to deal with it.

    Before that it was Strongbad’s theme for Teen Girl Squad.

    If it took me a few hours to reply at work I'd have very pissed off coworkers, not to mention how pissed off I would be if I was in the other end of it hah. I guess you're lucky in that things aren't as urgent.
