'Service'

I use to become confused when I heard these terms with reference to the word 'service'.

Internal Revenue 'Service'
Postal 'Service'
Telephone 'Service'
TV 'Service'
Civil 'Service'
State, City, County & Public 'Service'
Customer 'Service'

This is not what I thought 'service' meant. But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a ram to 'service' a few ewes.

BAM!!! It all came into focus.

Now I understand what all those 'service' agencies are doing to us.

Now you are as enlightened as I am.

I don't find that servicing all that good myself!

Maybe it's just me!
