Usually when a customer doesnt get it, it just means the message is not
clear. Just change the second message to say:

"After a long and tedious upload we have finally uploaded your file
succesfully. "

or if you dont want to be cynical just say:

"Uploading bla bla bla file details bla bla bla ....\nFile uploaded
succesfully".

This way it gives the illusion that the upload did something. It's all
about the message.

Or you can use sleep(n secs);
