I see it is already 7:43 or so here

I would normally be at work for the last 45 minutes - it's nice to get a break from the usual routine :grinning:

Off to get ready for a day of sitting in a court room to see if my name gets picked - apparently it is a 'crap shoot' - they just pick numbers out of a hat or something similar

Did not get chosen - there were 250 people and we were being selected for three trials. Near the end of the day my number was called but the guy ahead of me became juror # 12. So even if they had picked me I would have just been an alternate.

As it was, the attorney said "Challenge" which meant I was free to go - got out of there by around 3:10 p.m.

Good thing actually - the trial was to be from 21 to 25 November and I was supposed to work the weekend of the 26th and 27th so it is better that I can now just stick to my normal schedule at the hospital
:butterfly:

(besides it was a sexual assault case for a poor girl who had drunk too much at a party. She went into a bedroom and fell asleep/passed out and the accused had allegedly raped her - sicko!) (obviously I would not have been very impartial)
