In lieu of the sushi memo and Fragrant Lotus's milk debacle I found an article that even made me say what the f@*%?!? Seems this woman who has been a office manager for a law office for 20 years, gets called for jury duty. Wanting to do her civic duty, she serves and gets selected for a 3 day criminal trial. She also gets fired. She sues for wrongful termination. Best part of all of this, the attorneys for the defendants have had to file a motion for change of venue because both her father and sister are judges in the area and the other judge may be called as a witness due to her having sat as a juror in his courtroom. Gee, and you're going to argue that it wasn't her civic duty? Further, with her background it must have been damn hard to seat her on a jury.
