Fuck.

I got a reprieve from jury shit last week but didn’t escape entirely. Will have to be there on Monday.

FUCK.

At least the one day or one trial system is better than the county setup where you always spend a few days waiting and marching back and forth. In the fed system you appear on the day of jury selection, then after one hour of orientation you go to the court for voir dire. If in the box you waste an unknown amount of your life. If not in the box you’re all done after a few hours.

I guess the meaningless dream at the end of January was meaningful after all. It ended with waiting for the bus next to the courthouse. Two weeks later I got the notice.
