3 done 3 to go
In control of own destiny
Go ahead and go to work. I'm headed home. Once my route is out of the building. My day is over after jury duty. Besides I'm exhausted. All the coffee and donuts. I need a nap

Grand jury duty is even better.
Knowing my luck they'll call me in July when I am on vacation.

If called for jury duty during a vacation, the Court could reschedule you, especially if you have non-refundable reservations already made.
Just don't do what one guy did. He brought in alot of shoe laces and sat there making nooses the entire time to try and not selected.
The judge took exception to his behavior and gave him 72 hours in jail for contempt of court.
Imagine trying to explain THAT to the Managment team!

I found the Judge to be very understanding with people who had already booked vacations. He even dismissed for the whole session (3 months) people who had a good excuse why jury duty would be a hardship for them during that time. He did insist that the be available during some other 3 months session. When I was doing jury duty the ones who cried the most were school teachers. Apparently they thought they were too important to do their duty.

Maybe OP was not too successful with asking "would you like fries with that?"
Might also be working the skill of asking "would you like your hashbrowns scattered, covered, smothered and chunked?"

Well, it's been a week, wonder if we should send out the search parties for the OP.
Doesn't he know he has to update this original thread? That's the way this works

Interesting.
My Wife was on Jury Duty they could not reach a verdict. Sequestered the next night at one of the finest hotels, anything you wanted from the menu, nothing excluded.
Even got to use the TV, even free to watch pay per view programs.
The next day before noon, they reached a guilty verdict.
Almost seems like the State bought a conviction, come on!
A room that you or I would have to pay almost $200 per night, and the lowest price item in the Restaurant is $9 for a Dinner Salad?
I can see not putting them in a rent by the hour motel having to get stuff to eat from vending machines, but there has to be a good in between!

Fight the power.
More than likely the goverment has a deal in place with that hotel , it probably cost them less per room than it would cost you to pay full price at roadside motel.

Not our government. They probably paid twice as much as any one else. They have NO concept of what money is.

When you have jury duty does the government have to pay you accourding to how much you make at UPS or how does that work?
