One of the questions each juror was asked was if they had children under the age of 18 at home or a handicapped person they were responsible for caring for. They were excused.

My mom got summoned for jury duty when my youngest sister was less than a year. She home schooled me and my brother so there were 5 kids at home. The jury selectors were like "You don't work, GREAT! We want her." So my mom said "Awesome! You're going to get me daycare for my 5 kids? Oh and I'll need nursing breaks every two hours."

They sent her home after that. :gig

That's awesome! Here the regular employer has to pay 3 days of regular wages then the state takes over at 10 bucks a day.

Simply impossible for people running paycheck to paycheck (which is most of the USA) to not suffer serious financial loss. It's sad.

Heck, you can't get anyone to work for $10 a day in real life! They need to update that. Not even minimum wage.

Right??!! That's what I thought.

I just figured out how to do a reverse image search, a la Catfish, and I tried to see if anything came up.

All I got was "honeybee"!

It was very crustacean looking! We get the weirdest bugs around here. We had a huge Hercules beetle a while back, some fuzzy moths stuck on the window... lots of crazy looking moths actually, some cool butterflies too.

The form for Jury Duty has a place to decline the payment. The University is a big Employer for the County so it is very common to not take the payment for Jury Duty

There are some pretty weird crickets out there. Seems like their legs keep getting longer.

Ohmigod, the CRICKETS....uggghhhh.

We have spider crickets, and the storage area/shed/back of my coop is full of them. They are disgusting and freak me out to the point that when I go in to fill their feeders there are hordes of them on the wall staring at me, ready to jump, and I drop the top of the feed bin and run screaming like a little girl. I hate them!!!

How can I get rid of them without spraying some chemical smog into my coop? I'm really scared of them. Don't make fun of me, I hate bugs. You shoulda seen me when I was a vet and I would get a dog or cat that was infested with maggots. I would bribe my vet techs to get rid of them, it freaked me out so bad!
