I don't like having to repeat myself. Sometimes I can understand if an environment is a bit too loud and it makes it difficult to hear me, but even so, I don't like having to repeat myself. If it's a matter of a person not paying attention or simply playing dumb in order to get me to speak up...I will, and not only will they hear me, but everyone in the surrounding area will as well. I can project my voice and speak from my diaphragm if need be, but I don't think that should be necessary. I don't like having to repeat myself.
