So it looks like I’ll be missing work tomorrow to go to the courtroom and wait around with the rest of the prospective jurors. We’ll see if I actually get selected for duty; I’ve heard that they often call a bunch of people to show up, but then dismiss you because the lawyers call for a continuance or something.
I really hope that I’ll actually get to serve. Aside from voting and paying taxes, I see this as one of my fundamental duties as a citizen.
