Everybody dance

We have an intercom at work, so every few minutes I hear:

Judy, dial 401
Judy, dial 401

with the exact same emphasis each time:

JUDY, dial 401
Judy, dial 4 - 0 - 1

which is a direct command, and everybody here is trained after a few weeks to just obey it. Maybe I should get on the horn:

JUDY, dance like a monkey
Judy, dance like a MON - KEY
