So here is what I have come up with to solve the problem and be light on 
resources,
This takes any file that already exists and symbolically links it to 
what ever file you specify, this way the caller doesn't ever have to 
listen to a prompt to record their name, then when the agent answers, 
their only real option is to hit 1 to answer the call. I tested this and 
it seems to work.

exten => _X.,1,System(ln -sf /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/vm-Work.gsm 
/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/priv-callerintros/${IF($[ "${CALLERID(num)}" != 
"" 
]?${CALLERID(num)}:NOCALLERID_${EXTEN}${CUT(CHANNEL,/,1)}=${CUT(CHANNEL,/,2)})}.gsm)
exten => _X.,n,Set(AGENT_LOC=${DB(rockynet/agent/${EXTEN})})
exten => _X.,n,Dial(Local/${AGENT_LOC}@rockynet-support,20,trp)
