ANGRY CUSTOMER NOT COOPERATE
Hi, I understand your situation and why you're frustrated and upset about the internet issues. We certainly don't intend for you to experience these problems. However, please bear with me this weekend and be patient, as I am speaking to you kindly and you've asked for help with this. If I were at your location right now, I wouldn't ask you to do this for me; it would be faster for me to handle it myself. However, since we're communicating over the phone, we're working through the problem step by step, even though I understand it's not your responsibility. This is our only option to resolve the issue; if we don't, it will only prolong the situation. So, my question is, would you prefer to continue with this situation for the long run, or would you like to work with me on troubleshooting steps to fix the problem?"
