Did it once, but wasn't picked thank god. It would have been for a several week long trial I found out later on. I don't mind doing it, but if I would have been picked it would have put me out of the business I was in then.

I would have no issues at all doing it now because I can drop what I'm doing for a few weeks with no problems. People in this industry especially that make up BS excuses to get out of jury duty are pretty damn stupid IMHO.

We of all people should support a jury system, considering we can easily be discriminated by the govt and charged with BS charges. Trial by jury is the only thing that gives people in our industry a chance against the govt.
