If you need an energy drink to keep up with the speed of a co-workers mouth then you need a better tactic to escape the conversation. Try instead giving them a task to perform for you. You can assign a sense of urgency to it. This way they feel the need to move on a bit quicker.
This doesn’t mean you should avoid personal conversations altogether, but save those talks for lunchtime. Keeping the topic focused on work will help to quickly end the conversation, and leave you a little less frustrated.
