You've Been Summoned

Nov23

I went to my parent's house over the weekend and on the way, I stopped and grabbed my mail.  Once I got to my parent's house, I started sorting through it.  This is what happened next...

Me: Damn it!  I've been summoned for jury duty!
Daddy: Ha ha ha ha!
Mama: But you get paid!
Me: This isn't fair.  I work.  I pay my taxes.  I've never been to jail.  I wear my seat belt!  And this is how they repay me?  Jury duty?
Daddy: Ha ha ha ha!
Mama: It'll be fun.  And you get paid.
Me: Mama, have you ever served jury duty?
Mama: No.
Me: Then you aren't allowed to say it'd be fun.
Daddy: You'd probably have to serve on your day off and then you'd just complain.
Mama: Probably, but I think it'd be fun.  Interesting.
Me: Knowing my luck, the druggie that almost pulled a gun on me when I worked the ER will be up for parole or something and all hell will break loose.
Mama: But at least you'd get paid.

I am so jealous! I have always wanted to be summoned for jury duty. I was actually summoned in Ohio after I'd moved to Virginia, so I had to break down and get my VA drivers' license.

Seriously, though, maybe you'll get an exciting case!

Jury duty has never been one of those things I wanted to experience. I have no idea why, but it just isn't. But maybe I will get a decent case... if I actually have to serve that is. Maybe I'll get dismissed for some reason. A girl can hope!

I love that your dad just laughed at you. Laughing out loud

Yeah, I know. What a guy, huh?

(Kidding... love my dad even if he just laughs at me.)
