The situation
A customer opens live chat mid-meltdown: a failed order, a charge she swears went through twice, and 'three people already and nobody helped.' Every message is in caps. You have a real chat — no pause button, no draft-and-polish — and you need to read the actual problem under the anger, slow the temperature down, and resolve or route it before she rage-quits and charges back.
