Biggest SO pet peeve

Not that it works, but one thing I’ve conveyed is that when I’m reading or writing an email, I’m focused and engaged. Then out of the blue she’ll start talking and get 5 words in before I realize I need to listen to her. I try to get the context, but sometimes I can’t and then she wants me to comment and I’m lost. So I’ve said, say my name and wait for me to respond, THEN start talking. So when for the millionth time that doesn’t happen and I’m accused of not paying attention, I remind her of my request, which she knows she did not do. It’s science…

Tried that to …. lol

In fact this happened just today. I’ve been working from home a lot lately and wife is in the other room talking to my daughter. I’m wrapped up in balancing my AR and she barks… are you listening to me?

I said, no I’m not …. I’m working and didn’t realize you were speaking to me. Try getting my attention before you start talking …. She responds your just deaf and don’t pay attention. I still have no idea what she wanted … lol
