Verizon High Speed Internet Service.

The internet may be high speed, but there's no Service. :shakehead:

Bah. :grumble:

^Mine is no service, regular break downs and slow connection. But my company pays :-)

I was meant to work from home today but I had to go in anyway to send off some urgent things and deal with a few "emergencies". :grumble:

(Hey--don't look at me.) Water from the tap is swimming with dysentery and AIDS and all that, so no dice. :ohcrap: So... am stuck without purified drinking water for 7 more hours. :dead: Orange juice and white wine in the fridge--but they're not helping, lol. Poopy! :pout:

I'm hoping I won't have to even show up for the jury pool. :fingerscrossed:

Neither have I, but I've gotten close... The pooling process is awful: It's like a bunch of people waiting to be executed, hoping their number doesn't come up. :sweat:

Same here.

You'd think the court wouldn't want people who don't want to serve: they'd make bad jurors, huh?

That would be about 90% of people, though :sweat:

Oh well.

If companies would pay for it or the court system would cover people's salaries/incomes, there wouldn't be such resistance.

Oh, so you don't get compensated for work missed? That does suck. :usuck: Hmmm... I s'pose that's why it's called a "duty." :headscratch: Ah, the joys of civil conscription... :rolly:

Sucks big time.

Nothing like Mafia strong-arm tactics to get some of jurors. :shakehead:
