On so late I’m early… and sadly I can see this. Especially based on a conversation that went on much, much too long today

Was on the phone with a customer years ago. I started to go through steps to try and resolve issue. Customer was mad and said that “I already tried all this.” I said “humor me” and we continued. About 4 steps in there was a pause and he said “it working” and hung up. No thanks or gooddbye.

I hate things that are so unintuitive that you need to read a manual just to get them to work.
