I did Jury Duty . I thought it interesting, an insight into other peoples lives. I’m a real awful person
Your hair sounds cool Jen! I was wondering how that Hep Cat (Kat?) salon was. You guys should def. start dressing more rockabilly.
If you’re a student during the school year you can get out to jury duty. If it’s summer and you’re not in class then you do have to do it, I know because I had to do it a couple of years ago.
I ended up on jury duty that time, but it was a civil case and only took two days.
I’m sorry about all the hallabaloo around waiting to see if you were going to be on a jury or not! sounds crazy.
Are you talking about our new manager at work or is there someone else new since I’ve left? Cause our manager seems pretty cool, so as long as it’s not super crazy I wouldn’t be too worried about her. Remeber the girl (name withheld to protect the innocent) who had all the tattoos? People didn’t have a problem with that so your probably fine.
Diana,
Good point. Tattoos are allowed, so, I guess I shouldn’t worry about blue hair.
But then again, the previous store manager hired the person with the tattoos, not the current one. So, I dunno.
The manager I’m refering to in the show is… higher level than anyone who works directly in my store. Someone new, filling a job that’s been somewhat vacent for a while, (if that makes any sense to ya). No idea what her opinions on all that will be.
Rowley,
I have now spent two days on Jury Duty. I went the day I talked about on the show, and then went back in today for the court case. No one pled out, so we all had to come in and hear the case. Turned out to be somewhat interesting, but, as someone joked, “no one will be getting a book deal from this case”.
Tomorrow, I go back, for a third day, and hopefully finish up with everything.
And then, won’t have to worry about this for another year.
Jen,
I’ve just been talking about jury service on my show. i hope you guys find it interesting how jury service and the process is done here in the UK. It’s a little different - the Barristers here would not be allowed to pick and choose the jurors, maybe it’s the diversity of the jurors that either helps or hinders the judicial system. It’s certainly unbiased.
Blue hair rules!
re: Jury Duty –
Always stress real hard that you work in the media. That did the job for me.
A tease? Nice! That’s professional radio!!
Keep up the great work, kids…
There’s another Andy! Cool! Hello another Andy!
At about 1 hour, 9 minutes Jen says that “This will get me off for another year.” What’s Shawno gonna do for the next year?!
I think Jury duty would be kind of cool to go to but I don’t want to have to deal with it because I don’t have a car. But still, I think it would be neat to see the process. But I am scared to death that I’d burst out laughing at something. I guess I’m just a tad inmature (see sentence and previous comment for proof).
This was a really great show. The audio quality was really, really great. Your show really reminds me of a radio show without the commercials.
Loved the explanation of Jury Duty. Gonna see if I can use a more condensed version of it in the classroom.
Teacher Marc,
Now that the court case is over, I have more to tell about how the rest of Jury Duty went. Should happen on the next show. I will try my best not to swear through it, to make it easier for you to use some in your classroom.
Very cool that you can maybe us some of it in class! Glad you enjoyed my explanation of it so far.
Easiest way to get out of Jury Duty: When they begin to question you as a potential juror, allow a little fake Tourette’s Syndrome to come through. Thus:
Atty: “Do you feel you could render an impartial verdict?”
You: “Of course. I am GUILTY! as impartial as (ETHNIC SLUR!) anyone in this LET’IMFRY! town could be DIE LAWYERS! DIE! DIE! DIE!” (Smile, then let a facial tic fly a few times.) ft
