Gracious!

Trying to be gracious to a person who probably doesn't even know there is such a word can be -- well, trying.

Such a person goes blindly and boldly forward, rolling over other people's money, time, and patience with blithe ignorance.

The sad part is I need to keep restraining myself, because my meaner side keeps stepping up to the plate, ready to educate this bumbler in clear and uncertain terms.

And that would be bad because he really means well.  At least I think he does.   I hope he does.

I am bending over backwards to do the right thing.
