That would imply that people check your calendar before randomly calling. I get calls on Teams even when setting it to appear offline.

People call you directly without asking? Ignore them ffs.

Direct co-workers usually ask, it's mostly higher-ups that do it. I guess they think that they're important enough to do it. I absolutely ignore it if I don't have time or are on break.

even those higher ups need to learn that their underlings can only be productive when they aren't being prevented/distracted from being productive.

FYI teams has a setting to block direct calls and an automated voice message for missed calls.

Mine has been set to reject calls and play an automated message letting the caller know to ping me first on teams ever since my company decided it was an amazing idea to forward every employee's office phone number/calls to our God damned teams account.

I despise spam calls and refuse to take calls unless asked first
