there are many things wrong with this, but at the least, she is stealing time from your employer. At least she doesn't do with this everyone because they have cut her off, if I understand the situation correctly.
I had someone babbling at me last week and
I could take it for about a minutes, maybe it was closer to two minutes, but then I was done.
when she doesnt honor your statement of getting back to work, you need to tell her "I cant work while you are talking to me, I need to work now." And if that doesnt work tell her "please leave now." She may need that kind of direction.
