My secret to remembering people

Let me tell you my trick for remembering the names of people I meet: I don’t.
It’s not for lack of caring. It’s just that my stupid brain seems to only excel at remembering trivial things, like my family’s exact food orders at a random restaurant we went to in 2023. That same brain is largely worthless at matching names to faces, especially when it’s been a while.
So a couple years ago, I swallowed my pride and started maintaining a “People” note on my phone, which is basically just a list
