Explaining the same thing over and over again to a client that did a quick google search and is now an apparent expert in your field. Even worse when you’re a woman, one client in particular (the worst for challenging my expertise) never did this with with my male colleagues.

Talking to "experts".

I actually had someone call and tell me that they had been an engineer for over twenty years (and yet, they were still calling me), so I advised them that I had been a level 2 technician for over two years and they got suddenly very quiet and said "fair enough" and we were able to solve the problem together...
