Service Explained

At one time in my life, I thought I had a handle on the meaning of
the word "service."

"It's the act of doing things for other people."

Then I heard these terms which reference the word service:

Internal Revenue Service
Postal Service
Telephone Service
Civil Service
City and County Public Service
Customer Service
Service Stations

Then I became confused about the word "service." This is not what I
thought "service" meant.

So today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he
had hired a bull to "service" a few of his cows. BAM! It all came
into perspective. Now I understand what all those "service" agencies
are doing to us.

I hope you now are as enlightened as I am.
