Your far too educated to get on a jury. You wait, there is no way you will get on one.

Speaking of juries, for the last 3 days I have been running a civil jury trial that ended badly. One of the jurors turned out to be deaf and senile. He kept getting lost on his way into Court and couldn't folloow simple directions. Another juror was so old and frail that we had real concerns that he would not make through the trial. Consequently, after 2 days of the hearing we had to discharge the jury and start again. Fortunately, we were then able to settle the case. *phew*

On another occaision I had a jury that got on so well that they all went to the pub at their lunch break and downed as many drinks as they could in the hour. They would come back all giggley. They even started going out together at night (I think 2 were bonking) and came in all hungover the next day. One was about half an hour late on one day. The Judge was fucking furious. Anyway, at the end of the trial they went out of the room and deliberated for no more than 5 minutes (no kidding---the trial had gone 8 days too) and threw the plaintiff out with nothing! (a big win to me). Anyway, the Judge flipped out but had no choice but to accept their verdict.It was the only time I have ever seen a Judge not thank the jury for their efforts. biggrin

Come to think of it, I think you will go really well in a jury 9s. giggle
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

all you have to do to avoid jury duty is tell the attorneys interviewing you that you believe all sins should be punished by death.

bang your fist on the table and allow little flecks of spittle to fly from your mouth as you tell them this.
