After being called for jury duty six times resulting in nothing, my recollection is, what a waste of everybody’s time, Got me a Doctor’s excuse. The Law is a Machine. No pay, no play.
A bank was suing a customer for something and I was being voir dired by the bank’s lawyer. He asked me what I thought of the bank and said they were a RINKY DINK OUTFIT! He almost slumped. I related how a few years back I had gone to their bank with a paycheck drawn on their bank and the refused to cash IT!! How can you trust a bank that doesn’t trust THEIR OWN PAPER!! I was excused, LOL!!!
I am so thoroughly ashamed to live in a nation where citizens fight so hard to get out of jury duty yet complain bitterly about the justice system. What if the people who complained the most about the government didn’t vote? Why is America in such a horrible condition right now? Oh, wait… Never mind. You don’t care about any of that anyway.
This is true, actually. I have been a legal secretary for over 30 years and have never been picked. I was once told by a lawyer that I knew too much and I would be judging the arguments being made. They pick people they can convince, not people who can necessarily reason.

Didactics of the left are not funny. Has Trudeau sublet the content?

And has some obscure board game at home that you’ve never heard of, and still has all the pieces, and knows the rules perfectly, and always wins.

Joanie’s been a lawyer for how long? And is expressing surprise at how jury selection works?
