Jury Duty. Now don't get me wrong, I've always wanted to do this once. But the timing sucks right now. As an accountant, this is my busiest time. But I'm here and have no control over it.

We are locked in the corner of the courthouse. We have a one channel TV. We cannot leave until lunch (12:30) and afternoon break (3:15). I'm dying for a cig right now. But the hell part is the God Damn coffee machine is broken!!

Fu<k you local government. You can give us TV, free WiFi, computers, and even a game room.

But no fu<king coffee??

Are you kidding me??

No currently elected local official is getting my vote this year.

Bastards!

Yeah, it sucks... last time I was on jury duty was 2000 and I wasn't working for myself then, so idgaf... now it would suck donkey ass to have to miss much time. Too busy...

One of my (only 2 other than me) guys working here got a summons two years ago... I wrote him a letter asking for him to be excused due to our small business and workload and they would only defer him, not excuse him.

I don't mind doing my civic duty, but it shouldn't be such a big burden.

Skew, if you have to go back tomorrow, take a thermos off coffee with you... :D

I almost did. I didn't expect free WiFi, free computer access, 2 free movies, free popcorn, nor a game room.

But I Expected Coffee!!!

I'm a high school teacher and basketball coach and was called once right in the middle of the season. At the time I was also doing some contract work with DPI, so I was slammed to say the least. I asked to be deferred, and I was....

I was called back during my freaking SPRING BREAK.

Gah!

      Off-season Thread

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      Wow. Florida two years in a row heading to the ECF. Great goalie play in Bob and scoring.  We had a better team but were worse in goal.  We owned them in the regular season. Just shows what elite goalie play looks like.     bob vs Igor.  At what point does rod just roll with Koochie.  This is our future being fuged over by stubborn rod.

      Falcons got Cousins and Penix

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Cousins' Achilles rehab isn't going great because the Penix pick honestly felt like a panic move. But then again, the Packers have probably had the best QB play in the NFL over the past 30 years with Favre and then Rodgers and now Love showed great promise last year. They didn't need a QB when they drafted both Rodgers and Love and both guys sat for multiple years. The strategy has been working. Maybe the Falcons are trying to recreate that?

      Every Big-Time Throw from Bryce Young and CJ Stroud in 2023

      By CPF4LIFE · Posted

      First off...you missed the point of what I said. All I said was the offense could be setup to not have to rely on bryce in the same manner as other qbs if its working. And Yes the rest aren't proven commodities but NEITHER is bryce so I don't understand what you are getting at there. Lastly what is with this questioning of if bryce is liked? Liked how? Personal or football? See thats the problem with fans like you, you are so invested in a individual you respond to any critsicm with "do you like him". My opinion on bryce is strictly football....I DONT KNOW BRYCE PERSONALLY so I don't have anything against him in that regard. Far as football I said from the start I didn't see him as a top nfl Qb and he hasn't shown me anything so far to say I was wrong so based off your question...no. Just like everybody else on here, it's strictly football. Asking if he is liked in that regard, it's clearly no. He hasn't shown enough to be liked on the field.
