Starting with how you were selected, think of a bingo spinner. I've been called up five times, I know people who have never been called and are now exempt. Every time is different, you can be picked early or late or not at all. If it's a busy day, one way or the other you'll be there all day. You get a lunch break. Once we were dismissed right after lunch. Out of the five times I served I only sat on two juries. One of those cases was a conspiracy case, it was very interesting and we convicted. After that case I, all of the boredom and inconvenience didn't matter anymore because I got to see something our government does right. Everyone in that jury room that day were completely different people. Different genders, race, ethnicities and political views but we were of one mind in our deliberations with no dissent and justice was served.
