This happens to me a LOT too. It DOES send the message that what I'm saying isn't important.

They often give some bs like "I thought you were done" too or "I didn't hear you still talking".

What I do is smile and hold up my hand, saying "I'm still talking." That shuts them up FAST. Depending on the person, I also smile and say, "Hey it's not nice to talk over people" or "Let me finish and I'll tell you."

It happens with acquaintances, people in customer service, etc. EVERYBODY. And my voice isn't even loud, esp. with a mask, so it takes extra effort to be heard. And add all the ambient noise in the world to that.........
