Among other things I did on my “vacation”, I sat for Jury Duty. The case involved someone claiming damages for pain and suffering after being struck by a car while riding a bike.
Well ok so far, let’s stick it to that mega-insurance company (not Liberty Mutual, no, not at all). Unfortunately there was no medical evidence and I was supposed to rely on plantiff’s testimony that he had permanently lost pleasure in activities he had previously enjoyed (like biking presumambly). I live that every day, it’s why I’m in treatment for depression (and anxiety, let’s not forget that).
Apparently because of my special crime (serving on a Jury previously) I was no longer moral enough to join the Army, kill women and kids, burn houses and villages, after being a litterbug.
And Disturbing the Peace.
But we had a good old time on the Group W bench talking about Father raping, Mother stabbing and playing with the pencils. I entered at 8 am and left at 5 pm. I was in Voir Dire for an hour and a half, the Janitor waved goodbye as they shut off the lights.
It only seemed like 5 – 10.
