Confused ?? - Not Anymore!!

[YuccaFlatsRanch]

I became confused when I heard the word "Service" used with these agencies:

Internal Revenue 'Service'
U.S. Postal 'Service'
Telephone 'Service'
Cable TV 'Service'
Civil 'Service'
State, City, County & Public 'Service'
Customer 'Service'

This is not what I thought 'Service' meant.

But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to 'Service' a few cows.

BAM!!! It all came into focus. Now I understand what all those agencies are doing to us.

Now you are now as enlightened as I am

Just because we "homestead" doesn't mean that most of us don't have other careers. Unless you are looking to insult a large number of people in one post, you might find this kind of off-topic comment better left unsaid.

This looked much ruder than I meant!!!!

I read it as a joke, and took it as a joke.

I don't see this as pertaining to the little guy, more like following the money up the gov/corporate ladder.

As for Service....... please press one for English
