"For Your Convenience," My Arse

       We are regular receivers of recorded phone messages from several different sources which are at pains to let us know:  "This message will now be repeated for your convenience."

       It's NOT for our convenience.  It's for their convenience because somehow their recorded message begins in the middle, and if they didn't "repeat" it, only half the message would get onto the machine; so now one and one half to two times their message is slathered all over our voice mail.
