Translate an Angry Voicemail Rant Into a Comedy Monologue

Take the transcript of an angry, rambling voicemail message in {VOICEMAIL_TRANSCRIPT} and rewrite it as a two-minute stand-up comedy monologue. Keep the real grievance at the centre and exaggerate the specific details rather than inventing new ones, building to one clear punchline. Write it in spoken, performable language, marking a natural pause as [beat] where a comedian would let a laugh land. Keep the whole thing under 250 words.
