jury duty
had to go for a second term in my 26 years on earth. i hate going but got picked to sit on a jury again. another 3 or 4 day trial. anyone have an
opinion on being forced to sit on a jury? they call it a civic duty but if you have no interest being there, shouldn't you be allowed to not attend?
good thing is work pays for days missed, bad thing is its 9 to 5 everyday. not my type of schedule. i start early to get done early...

I honestly don't even know if we have that in Canada.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

You ever been called? I don't think I even know anyone who's ever been called.

I've been called once, about 5 or 6 years ago.

im on a good case, its a weird drug scenario. they found four kilos of cocain in the hollowed out bottom of a car at a guys house and the prosecution
has to try to show that this is the responsibility of the defendant even though there were two other people living there and the car isnt registered
to him. its gonna get interesting. today was all the bullshit surrounding how they raided the place and making it known that it was in fact legit
cocaine. my other jury service was for a stupid traffic accident so this should be way better. and its true, its nice getting paid by work and also
getting to do something unique....

I got an exemption when I got called this year to go on my son's birthday... I just said I can't do it.. I'm the sole bread-winner in my house and
that would lose us almost 200 bucks.
