A greek proverb and in our line of work :

Please Wait - Most do, but there are @!#$holes!
Please Wait – Most do, but there are @!#$holes!

“Uhm, there is a wait screen…It says ‘Please wait, do not go back or cancel the waiting screen or your transaction might fail’… I clicked back, have I purchased the product?”

“I click the update button while the page loads, and it does not update!!!”
