"Excuse me, I wasn't quite finished yet."
It took years of practicing this phrase but I've almost got it to a habit. Because I'm often very soft-spoken (especially at work), people have been talking over me for years. The first time I said this phrase, everyone fell silent like and looked at me like I'd just whipped my top off. They were that surprised.
