Protecting your time

Not sure if this fits, but does anyone else thats WFH/office have any other good tips for protecting your personal OOO time? I block book my out of hours time (weekday 17:30 – 09:00 + weekends) in outlook to deter people booking meetings ofter hours. (Multiregional companies do accidentally get it wrong… sometimes. Sometimes they dont care.) I also block book my lunch hour as busy/personal. (I will move this, but as long as I get one). 30 mins before the end of the day is booked out as tentative, and i reject meetings during these times, as we all know how those end of day calls can go over time. I schedule out of hours in Teams, so there's no expectation I'm still there even if my icon does go green. Work phone goes onto silent about 9pm Anyone do anything else they want to share?
