Jury duty can be a blessing, or a curse.
Some of the perks/hazards/interesting things:
1. It gets you out of the office. Plenty of interesting folks hang around courthouses. And even more pay traffic (or parking) tickets.
2. You could get sequestered.
2. You know it will get interesting if the folks can't follow directions at the metal detectors.
3. It's also sad seeing the little old people there (many because they need a conservator.)
4. At lunch time, you can eat, shop and roam around. (Lunches for court staff under an hour are rare in our neck of the woods).
5. Finally, you realize that your job's not so bad after all, your family's not totally silly and the food at the Hotel cafeteria really is pretty good.
And soon enough, it will be time to go home again, back to reality.
That is all...stay tuned.

Um, jury duty is the worst when you have things to do and places to go. In the city where I live, people have been robbed in the neighborhood surrounding the court, parking is $10+ and the cafeteria has day old food. Must be nice where you live!
