Ah! Gen Z of course I knew that ;)

I do the messaging in stages thing (no surprises there) but I notice that men don't. Neither does my sister. She ticks me off about it because she keeps her notifications on for emergencies. So when she's talking to me the phone goes ping ping ping. It's a bad habit.
