My First Rant - Wait Until I'm Finished Talking Before You Respond!!!

This is one of my number one pet peeves... in my line of work, I ask a lot of very long questions, and often the people I'm interviewing will interrupt with the answer before I've finished reading the question. Of course, I still have to read the question in full because the calls are recorded.  Some insurance agents are good about asking their clients to wait until I've finished asking the question before they respond, but most aren't.  But beyond that, waiting until someone is finished speaking before you talk is just basic good manners... people get a clue!!!

My first post....

Good morning everyone... if you haven't guessed by the title, I work from home - I have worked from home for different companies for about 9 years now, and one thing I've learned about working from home is that while it has a lot of benefits, working from home can still be stressful at times.  So I created this blog so I can rant occasionally about the work from home related stress in my life - maybe you'll be able to relate, or maybe you'll have some advice.  Either way, I'm hoping you'll also benefit from this blog.
