You should ask if the therapist is single. And hot.

That? Is hilarious.

Grrrr, my job. Apparently our jury duty policy is -- too bad, you have to use your vacation/sick time for jury duty.
I am an incandescent ball of anger right now, because I really need to save my time off for, you know, GETTING MARRIED and taking a honeymoon.
SO MUCH ANGER.

Can you postpone the jury duty? I think in Texas you can do it twice (but then you really better show up the third time).

Q: Can an employer require its employees to use vacation time or sick leave for jury service?
A: No. The Ohio statute explicitly prohibits employers from requiring employees to use vacation days or sick leave for time spent responding to a jury duty summons or serving on a jury. Employers are not even allowed to ask that employees use their paid time off, according to the statute. Employees do have the option of using vacation days or paid time off if their employer provides those benefits, but this must be done voluntarily.
ETA: they are not required to pay you for the time you are out, which is why one might choose to take the vacation days.

Can you postpone the jury duty?
I could, but the thing they sent says if you postpone it, you get rescheduled within 6 months. So I could end up getting scheduled during my damn wedding. So I might as well do it now and hope I get dismissed right away.
SO ANGRY.

Our wings are not tired.
Postpone! You don't need more on your plate.
xpost. oh well that would not do. I've been called 3 times and all times it was a one day thing. Some places you don't even go, you just call in the night before to see if you are needed.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Damn, Steph, that sucks. I rummaged around a bit in Ohio's labour laws. Your work cannot legally require you to use your vacation/sick leave, and in fact they can't even ask you to do so (though you can use it voluntarily). But they don't have to pay you either, so what else can you do? Thanks a lot, Ohio's labour laws.)

I think you can postpone twice; getting married is a legit out-of-jail card.
It do sucketh, though.
Hey, since you're here, Tep...I am going to be trying a new AD; I've been on Celexa for 13 years, and well, it ain't doing it anymore. Any scuttlebutt?
Anyone have personal knowledge of Viibryd (vilazodone HCI tablets?)
Email addy good if you prefer to chat on the DL.
