I have a client who turns every conversation into this. It’s very difficult to communicate any information to him. He easily speaks for 40 minutes moving from topic to topic without letting anybody break in. And if somebody interrupts with a point or question his default is “No, that’s not the point” without having heard anything that was said.
5 minutes of this is exhausting in itself.
But the work is fun.
