Ugh not to mention federal, if you get picked, which I guarantee you will, you could be in court for weeks. My brother was on a case for 3-4 months and they were secluded from everyone that entire time. You know how they send the little card around asking if you will discriminate based on race or make judgments based on gender? Just say yes (even though it’s not true) and you will never be called again. I have also used the vacation excuse. I haven’t been called since 2006.
