>But you have to remember every time to flip it before a meeting starts and after it ends.
Agree, but it's an easy habit to pick up.
>If you don’t then it will start being ignored because its never accurate.
Yes, that pavlovian response works both ways. If people keep interrupting my meetings, I'll remember to put up the thing. Remembering to take it down when the meeting is over is more problematic though.
>It also doesn’t work if you get an impromptu call or meeting you weren’t planning for.
It does. I've never had a meeting where it didn't take me a few rings to get my AirPods in anyway.
I totally agree with most of what you said and I appreciate the technical solution presented. Like I said my mind is just into finding simple, non-tech solutions right now. Also another benefit of the simple solution is it costs probably a buck or two, cheaper if I made the tag myself with scissors, part of a cardboard box and a marker.
The problem with both solutions is it doesn't work for dogs who typically can't read. An even simpler solution just occurred to me. Shut the door when I'm in a meeting.
