Accidentally left my Do Not Disturb on on my phone and finally removed it to find that Outlook hilariously crashing out. If I owe you an email, don't hold your breath, apparently.

Outlook app saying I have 999+ emails waiting.

my most unpopular opinion is that it's a sign of defective moral character if you point blank refuse to answer phone calls from unknown numbers. it's not that hard to hang up on spam/scammers, and you are probably missing important calls!
