Just call them with the date you served or write that on the form and it’s fine. A lot of people get in the system multiple times, especially if you have a name difference on like voter rolls and MTA lists, and they should be able to fix it in the system (which is not to say that they actually will).

Are you unemployed? Cause missing out on 8 hours of work to "get paid" 15 dollars (Which doesn't even cover parking) isn't my idea of a good time.

Oh man I must be the only one that loves jury duty. I get paid (by my employer) is probably a big part of it, but I get to watch movies and read or play video games and then go to lunch and have some drinks and come back and cut out early all while experiencing some of the greatest people watching the city has to offer hell yes.

Obviously we need a law that everyone gets paid their full salary for jury duty this shit is insane otherwise.

Oh shit I thought that house looked familiar.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browning_Family_murders

“In 2008, the home was the scene of a horrific quadruple murder, as 15-year-old Nicholas Browning shot his parents and two younger brothers in their sleep.”

I wonder if it’s build on some kinda Indian burial ground. Kinda nuts this all happened at the same house.

There’s a little “dog park” area next to the Rotunda parking garage, the many times I’ve been there, only once was there another dog. Narrow but plenty of place space, good for fetch

Edit: Misread your comment as your sister lives next to the bus stop. Do you not experience any of the issues I listed below?

​

Do you live next to a bus stop? I do. And while I understand the necessity of public transportation your sister is not wrong. The liter is one thing, I can blame that on them never emptying the cans. But you wouldn't need a map to follow the path of people from the bus stop, to the corner where the trappers work, to the alley where everyone blasts off. And while I understand the bus is not the root problem, that doesn't change the fact that they do invite an element of sketchiness. It's easy to call someone a NIMBY when you aren't rustling sleeping zombies off your stoop.

This was a reply to that specific comment, not an indictment on bus stops in Towson or public transportation in general.
