Are You an Agreeable Person?

Are You an Agreeable Person?

An article by Elle Hunt in The Guardian explored what it meant to be “disagreeable” after she was jokingly called the “fault-finder” by her friends. That moment prompted her to try becoming more agreeable—by holding back opinions, reading the room, and asking more questions. So now we ask our listeners if they have an easygoing or difficult personality, and how do they deal with people who aren’t so easy to get along with?
