Should I fire my list agent or not?

First, i really don't want to change the agent unless i have to. My list agent is a nice person, i just feel like we are different working style which may not be a good fit. I am not sure if it was me has no patience or my list agent is not very diligent on my property. Overall she did answer my message and phone call during the working days, however the property has been listed on MLS since August, there were only 5 showing request. She held open houses for several houses in the same neighborhood, include my house, last week I only had two showing request. One thing that make me really unhappy with her is that I asked her to updated MLS with new info and pictures, she said yes to me, but didn't updated them until two weeks later. It happened several times, finally I have to go take pictures myself and asked her to uploaded them to MLS, and have to ask her do it by certain time, otherwise, she wouldn't do it until whenever she feels like. when we discuss things over the phone, I enjoyed our conversation very much, however she just won't take action quickly even after we decided what to do next. I normally don't contact her over the weekend, but sometimes things come up I have to. Half of those times, she just won't return my messages or calls at all, and I know she works weekend. I get it that agent are busy, but I cannot afford paying $1000 construction loan interest a month and waiting for her to get things done. Should i change list agent or not, would like to hear any thoughts/ pros/ cons. thank you!
