Very true.

One thing we, as consumers, might do is time our calls to not be at peak
times.

We all know what the peak times are:  They're the times WE are most likely
to be calling them ourselves:

Right at the opening bell
At lunchtime
Just after getting home from work

Consider calling at 'off' times.  That might ease things for all concerned.
