"Okay, click on start, and go to control panel."
"Very well, I am clicking on start, I do see Control Panel up on the screen and have clicked on it, the screen reads off to me that I should pick a category."
"Click Switch to Classic View on the left, then double click on Network Connections."
"I do see Switch to Classic View, and have clicked on it, it displays a new screen containing a multitude of icons, I am scanning the screen for..."
"Just double click on Network Connections, sir."
"Very well, I have found the icon and double-clicked on it now."
That's exactly how he's talking. He can't give me a simple yes/no answer, it sounds like he's actually TRYING to make every single one of his answers longer than the damn questions or instructions I give him 
The sad part is, it sounds so FORCED that this idiot is giving william shatner a run for his money when it comes to weird pauses in his sentence. [ 10-11-2002: Message edited by: Khyron ]

Sounds to me like he's nervous, and trying to make sure you know exactally what he has done. At least he's not doing things you haven't told him to.

True. It's just so funny hearing him try to act all professional, he'd never say 'okay' or 'sure', always 'very well', and such

Me: "All right, please uncheck 'Load Startup Group items'"
Him: "Do you want me to uncheck 'Process system.ini'?"
Grrrrr.... this was after half the call was spent figuring out why his keyboard was registering the wrong keys - he told me all keys were acting up... then it turns out he just had Num Lock on on his laptop's keyboard... I love wasting 45 minutes on a 2 second issue...

*gives Khy not one.. but TWO backscratchers!* Either that or I can just scratch the itch when I get there =P~
You could, but I don't arrive for two days, so it might have driven me stark raving mad by then.
Or I might be mad now. I can't tell for sure

Hello? What should I do now?"
