Make the butt dial useful

Here's a thing to try. Next time you accidentally butt dial someone - don't hang up!

If they pick up say something like, " sorry that was a butt dial but when I saw your name I thought it's been a while since we chatted so I thought I'd stay on the call and say hi". See where that takes you

If they don't pick up send the above as a message to them and ask when they'd be free to speak / meet

In a world where our devices are isolating us more and more, let's use them to reconnect and refresh our relationships
