I'd order another coffee.

And a really flakey messy pie/cake . . .or something very slurpy and noisy. .

I’ve worked with people who are incredibly rude/aggressive over the phone to people just doing their job eg HMRC staff. I loved it as they never seemed to get anywhere, adding to the beetroot faced anger.

Whereas being polite and respectful in my experience gets you a long way.

I have to bite my tongue with HMRC.

Same. I’m never rude but boy are they testing me at the moment. (I’m owed 745 quid by HMRC and I’ve been trying to get it back for almost a year now.)

If you eventually win them over, remember to remind them that as they charge interest on late payments, you expected to be treated no differently ...

Fair's fair in love & war [and taxes]

I’d grab him by his big fat head and ‘listen man, I’m not listening to you - I’m not going to jail for you or anybody’

Then start hyperventilating
