text: how do you get someone to stop interrupting you mid-sentence? there are a few colleagues of mine who have a bad habit of interrupting everyone else before they can finish what they are saying. possible reasons? bad manners, impatience.... who knows? i find it really annoying especially when they misunderstand and get all worked up before i can finish what i'm telling them. to make things worse, they have really confrontational personalities. hey if you find out, tell my kids ....wait they are interupting again, i have to go : )
