    Snow sucks.

    Someone pick me up in a snow plow, with breakfast and coffee, and give me a ride home....?

    *sigh* I gots the call out guilt. I’m trying to remember I’d feel worse if I’d landed in a ditch. Btw, I still haven’t seen a plow

    If work guilt trips you, tell them to come pick you up. They will never show up.

    I passed 1 plow truck in 30 min, on the way to work, and it wasn't plowing the road. WTF? Where do they think they live? MD!?! (or anywhere south)
    We need all the trucks out!






    Disclaimer: I lived in MD for 20 years. Running joke was we had 2 plow trucks per county, and if the snow sticks overnight, the state shuts down. lol Sister living in VA claims this still holds true.

    I have jury duty coming up and my boss has given me a predated written excuse to get out of jury duty because she doesn't think "regular people should have to serve on that level of jury duty." I'm offended in so many ways that I didn't ask what she meant by the statement.

    Good grief. 😳😳
    Sorry that happened or was ever said. 😞

    That kind of mindset is so infuriating.

    I'm sure you're valuable, capable and doing a great job at what you do regardless of what people like that ever say.

    completely outrageous. i'd rip up the paper and find a new job. *ideally*.

    seriously though. absolutely inappropriate. you have every right to be offended. if i were a lawyer i'd fight for you to do this jury duty.

    Well in England, they have professional jurors...
    It's like they regular job, so in many respects, not a trial by peers...

    Maybe that's what she meant, but tactles nonetheless...

    No, whichever case you get assigned to. You get a summons in the post and you have to respond or you get fined. There are discrepancies in the way courts are run across the UK, ie I think Scotland and Wales have bigger or smaller juries. I don't think we have 'professional jurors'... *heads to google* 🤔

    This makes me wonder about a “jury of peers.”

    Do people with titles (do we still call them aristocracy?) get a jury of the same?

    Is there a (nowadays theoretical) difference in the juries of nobility versus commoners?

    Did the seller actually have the house viewing open to the public even in that state? Damn... It doesn't even look save to breath in there!

    Its bank owned. Whoever lived there seems to be long gone. Its on the market by appointment only and i needed ro sign a waiver before entering the place.
