Ask HN: How to deal with requests for "high level" explanations?

How do you deal with the mental load from "just explain that high level to me" request from co-workers?

Most of my work, either in exec or specialist roles, is fairly complicated and needs context. I am disturbed when people expect to understand why it's taking the time it takes without any context at all. I have my way to explain simply, but it always feels awkward.

How do you deal with that problem, how does that make you feel?
