Dear work colleague;
I know you are trying to help, but your assistance would be more helpful if you didn't behave as though I brought this to you as soon as the analyst brought it to me. Yes, I have tried that. And that, too. And that as well. They don't work. I have run the program in ways A, B, C, D, and E, although not F, so I appreciate that head's up.
Incidentally, Way F? Worked for me where it failed for you because you didn't put the payload in. It didn't have any inputs - you know the old programming saw: GIGO? Yeah, that.
I know this program, inside and out, from long hours of painstaking and painful adjustment. Behaving as though you've discovered something new which I must have been too stupid to notice is really Not On. A respectful tone rather than a lecturing one would do wonders for our working relationship.
