Philip,
This reminds me of a related quote by one of your late countrymen, C. S. Lewis: "War does not increase the death rate." (Quoted by Billy Graham in a sermon delivered in the Rose Bowl in November 2004, based on a conversation he had with Dr. Lewis some years before.)

Today I had trouble with:
"For Sasha in shipping and receiving, press six."
It seems easy, unless it's your 122nd voice prompt of the session and you've become a little punchy...

Today I did a session and they had one of my favorites:
"....information on OUR HOURS....."
(Even the engineer looked at the client - who he knows very well - and asked "I know you didn't write this but, are you sure you want to keep that wording?")
But hey...we're all pro's here, right?

Ok-- today I am reading technical narration that was originally written in Argentinian Spanish, and appears to have been translated into English by the people who write the packaging for Japanese candy.

Liz,
No, showing off would have been quoting all 76 scripts that need to be finished and uploaded by Monday.  
(Thankfully, none of them are over 20 lines and most are 10 or less.)
