As much as I found Jury Duty to be a huge disruption to my life, I have enjoyed my stints in the jury box over the years. I like working with other people. I enjoy watching the proceedings ( and yes, sometimes being very critical of what I am seeing). I do get terribly frustrated by the snail's pace and the folderol that seems to be part of our system of law. Some of it seems so wasteful! Have fun!
:) I am an odd one, I actually wanted to see what it was like being on a jury. Guess it comes from hanging around the guys in green so much ("my" guys the deputies...)
It seems to be a fact of life, that anything, business, large families, law, where more than one or two people are involved, and sometimes even then, lag time and folderol are a rather large part. I hope to bring my knitting. Or at least a book.

H.I.'s just finished jury service. Like war - tedium then frantic hell.
As disruptive as it can be, thank you for doing it. Too many try to get out of it.
Maybe you could assign each juror a letter!

Eeep! That sounds somewhat like the description of a cop's job...

:) I might actually have to ask for one day off, I do have a doctor's appointment, but otherwise, I am rather looking forward to it.

Uh. Heh. I was admonished not to talk about what was going on, soooo, even though that's a great idea, probably not...
