Whoops! I forgot to post last week!
I had jury duty about a month ago, but I didn't get picked. People complain about having to go to jury duty, but I really wouldn't have minded having to serve.
What is the pay where you are? The courts here in Harris County have finally gone up to a whopping $30 a day (unless you get chosen, then it's 50). Yeah. Thirty whole dollars. (I believe the national average is 50.)
What I really dislike, though, is that they have gone to a debit card system. Instead of a check, you activate a debit card which is loaded with your pay a couple of days later. So, you can only use the card for a purchase of exactly or less than $30. And if you don't use your card within 90 days, you forfeit your pay. I guess it goes back to the county. That's not right. But, at least the pay is no longer just $6. Yes, it used to be $6! That's a joke, right?
And speaking of jokes...

They never pick me for jury duty. I spent 25 years in law enforcement. No one wants me.
ReplyDeleteLove all the funnies and the minding my own business one made me laugh out loud.

Heeheehee! Yep, mind your own business. And last I checked, the pay here is free parking plus $12 a day for jury duty.
