Seriously?!?

So I came home last night from work put down all my crap and as always look to see what came in the mail. I didnt even get fully turned from the counter when I saw it. An envelope from the Armstrong County Courthouse. I have been summoned for Jury Duty in February. Brandon enters the room , which at this point I am cussing to make a sailor blush at the shear disbelief that they would send me such a thing. Don't they know who I am ? Don't they know how busy I am . So looking at the questioneer that they sent I think I will be ok. I will be writing to be excused due to being self employed. If that doesn't work I might have to tell them how I just love Capital Punishment!

The self employed thing only works so many times. They come to know your schedule and schedule you on your days off. Mr. Bruises just went through this, he finally had to serve. I've only been called once. Go. It's an experience!

I just left the Warren County courthouse in Feb. I was the court reporter and the truth is if you are completely honest and tell the truth, you won't get picked to be a juror. Like for example would you believe the testimony of a police officer over a civilian/defendant? Of course, duh. And my favorite is: Do you truly believe that my client is innocent as he sits here today? NO!!!! How do I know that? Because 95 percent of people charged with crimes plead to something, lol. On the bright side you could get picked for a rivoting civil trial.
