I can't believe we still have to worry about humans controlling their bowels. it's barely excusable for children. Get your **** together, literally.
Got called for jury duty AGAIN for the second time in a year. I thought they only hit you up every few years or something. Don't they know better than to ask me to adequately judge my peers? |

I'd probably ignore everything and vote along with the other jurors just so I could get the hell out of there.

They do give you plenty of chances to exempt yourself, but you still have to sit through juror selection and answer a bunch of dumb ****ing questions. At the last case I had the defense was comparing cocaine to cupcakes to help us understand

I have, once. Didn't get selected though. Very boring. Karen got called twice. They have no information other than name and address, so I have to keep sending back the form telling them she couldn't possibly go. Quote:

I remember one judge started with "Now who here watches CSI?" Hands shot up. "Do you believe that's how the criminal justice system works?" Any who said yes were immediately dismissed.

Ja it's 3 years here as well if you serve on a jury. If you get called in but not selected there's no wait period.

That's what I thought too. Oddly though, only been called once in my life, and that was over ten years ago. If I was called now though I'd just use the excuse that I can't leave Karen on her own and that would be accepted. Might need a note from her doctor, but I doubt I'll ever serve again.

Yeah that's kind of all you can do, apart from (shudder) interact with the other human beings there! Mind you, you still need to keep one eye/ear open, so don't get too lost in your book.
