The meaning of "Service".


Recommended Posts

I used to get confused when I heard these names using the word 'Service'.

Internal Revenue Service

Postal Service

Telephone Service

TV Service

Civil Service

Public Service

Customer Service

This is not what I thought 'service' meant.

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

Suddenly it all came into focus.

Now I understand what all those 'Service' Agencies are doing to us.

I hope you are now as enlightened as I am.

... and elsewhere in the universe ...

A cowboy appeared before St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.

'Have you ever done anything of particular merit? St. Peter asked.

'Well, I can think of one thing,' the cowboy offered.

'On a trip to the Black Hills out in South Dakota , I came upon a gang of bikers who were threatening a young woman. I directed them to leave her alone, but they wouldn't listen. So, I approached the largest and most tattooed biker and smacked him in the face, kicked his bike over, ripped out his nose ring, and threw it on the ground. I yelled, 'Now, back off or I'll kick the **** out of all of you!'

St. Peter was impressed. 'When did this happen?'

'Couple of minutes ago.'
