I was in tears. The answer a question by asking a question strategy has sure struggles this week.
I absolutely HATE people that do this as a general conversational technique. The last boss I had did the same thing, pose a question and have you try to finish their thought as if you're an extension of their internal monologue.

It puts so much pressure on a person, and it's ridiculously awkward if you answer incorrectly or say you don't know.
