(OT) Jury summons...

I know we talked about this a week or two ago. But in case anybody is curious about the process.

 

I got a summons for jury duty two weeks ago and today was my day in court. I got to the court house at 9am and filled out a questioner about myself. They showed us an episode of 60 minutes, which gave a brief history and description of jury duty. Then they randomly called 12 people up to the bench and asked them basic questions. Do you know anybody in the court room, do you know this particular doctor, etc... I wasn't picked and sat around waiting for everything to end. There was one guy who made it known he didn't want to be part of the jury. Everytime the prosecutor asked a question, this juror raised his hand and said he couldn't agree to that. It was comical and people were chuckling everytime he spoke. To the prosecutors credit, he made that bastard sit up there until the final selection. I got out of the court house around 11:30am and have fulfilled my obligation for the next 6 years.
