I imagine most people are, like me, working on a 'first come, first served' basis.
There is no automated reply system to get people first in line. Its basically the luck of the draw to be first in line.
Also myself and most of the jumbletowners i know do not work on a first come first served basis.
My point is that people who work outside the home and does who work in the home derserve as much of a chance as the next person. Thats why i very seldom go on a first come basis. I feel that every one is equal and deserves to be treated the same.
Well thats my opinion on the mather.
Enough said.
