Okay...I know that you are all thinking..."Where can I get one of those fancy badges?" Well, I have one...for the low, low, low price of FREE!!! I received this notfication to call in on December 29th at 5PM and then they would inform me as to whether I need to report the NEXT day for jury service. WTF?! Don't tell me that the courts are in session during this time of year! Isn't it time for some Y2K thing to happen??? I'd like to put it off until the summer...but then it might cut into my summer vacay...and I'm heading off to Japan to climb Mt. Fuji.
Normally, I don't think that I'd mind serving on a jury. I liked John Cusack in Runaway Jury. One of my friends who was called in to service had the distinct pleasure of being there when a potential juror was being berated by the judge for being late. The juror was complaining that she needed to be excused from jury duty because she was "tired." No joke. She was dismissed.
Whatever the case...this sucks. It's during my fricken' Christmas break! And it's TWO days before New Years. Say...did one of you send me this summons as a joke? Because if you did, you suck. There WILL be some "airing" of grievances at the Festivus celebration...
Love,

P.S. I just realized that my moniker is coming up at J-Cat...it's because my cohorts from work and I started a blog and we don't want our real names to show up anywhere since we're pretty much using it as a venue to plot the demise of our incompetent principal.
