I wonder what sort of smiley I earned. Since I don't post there they probably decide to do the dumb ass thing and just decide to have fun at your expense again. It's kind of sad, considering that you would think about of gray beards would act more intelligent then a bunch of junior high schoolers.
You're under their radar. You won't get a smilie. You have to be one of the A-listers or one of the they don't like.

There is some truth but they do call them dramas for a reason.

If you don't do it then you go to jail. Would you rather take the $5 or go to jail and lose even more money? It's required by law. I go with the flow and deal with it.

Don't use mine.

Actually, it does sound a bit like our military service. I think the pay is now about 5€/day and the service lasts minimum of 180 days. Ofcourse, there's free housing and food in addition but it still gets nowhere near what people get from actual work.

I get paid time off so I'm ok with it. Paid to sit on my ass for 3 or so days and get about $75 tax free. I'm ok with that.

I suppose it's in the best interest of companies to give their employees that. With that it doesn't sound too bad anymore

Not every company will pay for time off so it does cause hardships. the 2 times I've been called for it I was unemployed so I had the free time and got a little cash out of it.

Woot. My buttons are working again! It's sort of stupid how my computer doing self maintenance tends to make javascript and other coding break.

I'm doing it in case he asks for the blood draw. He's my parent's doctor and my mom told me he likes to check cholesterol levels before renewing a prescription. I thought I'd do both in one visit to save time.
