I approached, offering a friendly smile. "Everything okay, Mrs. Davies?" I inquired, my voice soothing. I saw she was struggling with a complex network issue.

I brought her a bottle of her favorite seltzer and a small bag of her favorite chips. "I know how this feels," I said. "Need a coffee?" I offered, then I smiled. I spent a few minutes explaining a complex problem.
