Cevap
Listen actively without interrupting, acknowledge the manager's urgency empathetically, and gather specific details about the issue.
The correct response prioritizes active listening, empathy, and clear communication. When interacting with an upset or anxious user, technicians should allow the user to state their problem fully, acknowledge the impact on their work, and ask clarifying questions without using confusing technical jargon.
