I have had occasion to listen to Americans speak.

In My Humble Opinion, and as a GENERALIZATION, I think Americans speak very slowly and very plainly.

I get frustrated with the speech patterns quickly, and end up cutting them off... "Yeah, yeah, okay, I know what you are going to say. SPEED IT UP, MAN!"

But I would never lose my cool over something as simple as a help-desk phone call or not understanding an accent.

There are better things in this world to get upset about. Maybe that is another thing the US has to understand. You guys get riled up over the smallest things.
