I did get a little irritated, however...but not at the lady.
I presume she was entering my answers on a laptop or whatever. But, after I had answered my age (74), indicated I am unmarried and live alone, we entered a series of questions that seem to have ignored my previous answers: How many people under the age of 18 live in my house? Does my spouse need outside medical care? Etc. And DUH! Wouldn't you think that previously answered questions that rather negated the need for other questions would have been skipped over?
She had already asked and been told I own my house, that I am financially sound, and that I don't owe anyone money before she began asking if I had trouble paying rent/mortgage or if I could not afford food or if my utilities had ever been terminated because of late or non-payment.
I have done many questionnaires in which a parenthetical was in place saying that if my answer to the previous question was "No", or "Yes", then please skip the net 10 questions.
It took about 20 minutes, but the lady was very nice, and I figured she probably gets a lot of hang-ups and ugliness, so I played nice and thanked her at the end.
