Like others here I've been there (GIG), heard it, done it.
Sat in the comfort of our office chairs listening to it on a "tape" is one thing, being sure you've got it right when you're dealing with significant terrain issues and/or avoiding Cbs is another thing entirely. It's hard work, especially after a long flight and frankly I don't blame the guys for not understanding things first time round and the trying to clarify what was being said, despite what the Monday morning quarter backs on here might think.
