"Ricoh Multifunctional Copiers" is hard enough to say.
Never mind 20 seconds masquerading as a :15.
Why in the name of God is the phone number listed TWICE?

No, really!! What is the continuity director or the client telling you when you explain the situation? "We gotta cut something--what's it gonna be?"
It's really gettling to be a problem here lately. And we are now getting into the increasingly heavy commercial traffic season through and after the politcal season.
Clients need to be reminded this is NOT PRINT! The average listener can't absorb a grocery list of info in :30.
What are we doing to educate them for best effectiveness?

This is for an e-learning project and supposedly written by a professor:
"The Declaration of Rights provides that all political power is inherent in the people. This provision was, no doubt, placed at the beginning of the document for a reason. It is to remind judges, elected officials, and others in power, that their power is second to the will of the people. Only the people of the state can relinquish authority and delegate it to other public officials. Although this provision is not easily tested, so I doubt you may need to revisit it on the exam, it is important to note."
gulp!!! I wonder if he talks like that too.

Yikes! When I see copy like this it makes me even more happy that 85% of my vo work is corporate narration. I hardly ever face the time demons!
