Top ten irritating phrases

Telephone machine answering:

1) "press 1 for English"

2) "your call is important to us, all of our representatives are busy helping other customers, your wait time is approximately 45 minutes"

3) To better serve you we have changes our answering machine options, listen carefully and answer the following questions carefully, press 1 for.........stc.

If you really wanted to better serve me, just have a real person answer the fucking phone.

After you log in at a dentists/doctors office:

"we'll be with you shortly" or "we'll be with you monentarily"

I always ask them how many actual minutes is shortly and/or momentarily; usually they have no idea.
A couple of weeks ago there was a message left on our answering machine from the city school systems new automated emergency notification system. The message went on about what it was, that "this was a test" and so on and so on. Then, it concluded with, "If you have questions about this system, call xxx-xxx-xxxx. Or, if you did not receive this message, then call xxx-xxx-xxxx."
