Who tf keeps their phone off dnd at night? The last thing I want in the middle of the night is to be woken up by some email spam.
That said I have a rule set up which allows calls to go through if they are from my favorites list, just in case they're dying.
Same. If it's an emergency and you're not on my favorites list then you should really be calling someone else
Well I guess there’s no point keeping the batsignal then 🤷🏻♂️
Gas for the batmobile hurts even my wallet
There is also an exception for if the same number calls you twice within 15 minutes. That way if a loved one is calling from a different number it will still get through.
@LimitedWard @B4tid0 Ive worked in IT for decades. DND after 10p CST is the only way I get sleep and if they are dying, there sure af nothing I could do about it, naked at 2:30am and just woken up.
Oof are you effectively always on call until 10pm every day? I have on call rotations with week long 24 hour shifts, but luckily I only have to deal with it every 2 months. Having daily late night calls just sounds dreadful.
@LimitedWard
I manage IT teams/departments, and while there are middle managers, to quote an old MST3K line,
"*mutters* There's always something with this tribe..."
Basically people that complain about getting calls late at night are admitting they aren't very savvy with their phone. DND call settings are a life saver.
Same. All text messages and notifications are silenced, but calls from favorites or calls that call more than once in 15 minutes come through.
DND is my life, especially as a light sleeper.
If they're dying I probably can't help them anyway. Call an ambulance. Let me sleep.
This is the only answer and you figure it out quick if you're a light sleeper. If I get a call in the middle of the night, I know that it's important, full stop. The rest can burn.
Same.
I'm also active on WhatsApp though - the only way I could get that bastard to honour DnD was to turn off all its notifications, and use Alertify to play a sound for certain silent notifications.
Wrong is person
Same, not that I would wake up anyway. THE SLEEP IS DEEP WITH THIS ONE.
