You were supposed to submit paperwork to request a jury. You did not submit that paperwork, so you do not get a jury. You have no one to blame for any of this except yourself.
Good for them! All this bullshit about "you only get paid when the doors shut", while ignoring the time wasted during flight delays and the time worked before and after the flight is just that - bullshit. Plus they act like the "perks" should offset the low pay, completely ignoring how the pay never kept pace with the economy and the "perks" are continually eroded.
Trying to prove they're not a bunch of oppressive, regressive theocrats. So they'll tell you you can't read certain books, be taught history or social skills or kindness in schools, can't learn about safe sex, make it hard to get birth control, make it impossible to get an abortion, prosecute you and your doctor and your friends if you get an abortion, restrict your ability to vote, gerrymand things so even if you do vote it doesn't count, etc, etc, etc. But they can point to this one thing - hey, there's no tampon tax - and loudly proclaim what a liberal paradise they are. /s, but not really ...
They want to make their states so unpleasant that liberals leave. Then they own the state, and it's Congresscritters, and it's Electoral College votes.
There was some article I just read, where Texas quietly amended their abortion laws - just a little, but they now allow it in a couple more situations. The lawmakers are all covering their asses, saying "Well, its not our fault, the doctors are just too scared of nothing, they should be doing their jobs!". And everyone else is like, "But that's not what the law says!!" And the lawmakers seem miffed that anyone would blame them for what the law says.
Do you need the latest router, or just "a" router? I usually get mine for like $10 at Goodwill. They're a couple years old when I get them, but they work fine and I don't need anything fancy.
