Use masking tape to indicate the desired position - or a TB strip.
Works for me.

I actually had that problem with my Bass Big Muff. I have the switch on dry, but whenever I stomped on the pedal I would always kick the switch on to normal, which lead to my distortion losing all the low-end and attack. In the end I simply but a sodabottle cork to protect the switch.

True bypass strip.

Like one of these;

I use one just like this, so I can switch from one sound to another with ONE stomp. No tap dancing, no mistakes, and no hitting volume knobs.
Easy.
