Curses.

You can get out of jury duty on the first day by blatantly winking at the defendant as you give them a double thumbs up.

That’s how I’ll do it. Because yep, like clockwork, every four years I get a jury summons. Not a bad batting average, considering Los Angelenos are eligible to each serve it every year.

It’s an honor, my civic duty, yeah yeah. I don’t want it. I’ll be on call the week after my vacation, so I have that to rue the whole time I’m gone. I’m keeping my fingers crossed I don’t have to actually serve, and whoever is on trial had better really hope I don’t have to either, or else he’s getting the chair.
