Becoming more convoluted every time I want to sign in to g mail or my phone account

Too often now I am taken on a journey I do not want to go on.
There is a box that says, Trust this device? then it states, if yes, we will not have to go through the two-step verification process. I click it, but it takes no notice. Got to go through the same process every time.
I wish there was an actual person I could stand in front, I would punch him in the nose.
