The amount of non-working numbers that are listed on the County's website is insane. When you do finally get through, you will be sure to get a voicemail box, then a return call (usually from a blocked number - as if anyone is answering those these days) and told to call yet another department to which you will leave a voice message, etc. etc. etc. There is no "resource center" to assist you through any process, or answer a simple question. You will simply be referred to the non-profit LSNJ. Today I was told that "attorneys don't call us to see where in the process their cases are."

I just watched an ocean county sheriff’s officer throw a parcel of good service in the trash can outside the building after I dropped it off. What a guy!

I am just dropping off paperwork for someone and I go to the help kiosk and am greeted by a nasty nasty woman. What a shame. Most people are here under duress and to have some wretched woman be short and nasty right off the bat is disgusting. I get it you have to deal with people under duress and a lot of the public but if you hate your job go find another one or transfer to the jail division.
