You can’t extend the e-visa inside Vietnam but you typically can go for a one day visa run (leaving in the morning, back in the evening with a new visa).

I had a similar experience and they sped it up when I was close to the date I was supposed to go to Thailand.
They are aware but if it’s really rough they aren’t going to budge.
