Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting

Ugh. I’m a sales engineer. I work with an account executive. When she’s speaking to a client she often says, “blah blah blah u/MapleEngineer can expand on this” then just keeps talking. When I hear my name I come off mute, take a breath to speak, and she just…keeps…talking. I spoke to her about it and told her that when she says my name she should stop taking and let me explain. She kept doing it so I started just jumping in by saying, “Thanks, SalesWeasel, blah blah blah…” and speaking over her until she stops talking. She’s learning.
I feel your pain… don’t bring my name up and then ramble on for another 5mins and then expect me to go back to the 4 points you glossed over…
