Politely asking, "Is this a good time to talk?" is never a bad idea. And I know I don't have the entertain the questions, but it's not about the questions. It's about the circumstances surrounding the questions.

I know...I know.....

Just try to be patient with those people. As we say in the South: "Some people just weren't raised rrriiiiiiiightttt."

This goes back to the whole subjectivity of "awkward aspirant."

Is it just basic manners, is it based on subtle hints or overtness (is that a word?), GLO-specific protocol, should they be psychic and know that MexicanMami wants them to formally ask "is this a good time," etc...
