I have jury duty October

I have jury duty October 2nd. I want to make sure they NEVER pick me for jury duty again. So, whatever you guys pick, I'll go through with at the courthouse to ensure that they take me off their list of candidates permanently.

If you have other cool ideas that I didn't list, please let me know here. If they're awesome enough, I'll even add them to the poll.

In all seriousness, I got out of it because I'm in college. That's one of the automatic disqualifiers. I wouldn't have time for that crap. In the letter I got in the mail, it had a whole list of reasons that I could get out of it when they summoned me. Re-read the letter they sent you.

And, chances are that even if you do go, they won't pick you. For some reason they do like older women on the juries and I'm pretty sure that you are young. If you were a man, I'd say you were really cleared of it. But if you can't find a valid reason on that slip of paper, just act like you've already made up your mind about all cases. DO NOT ACT OPEN-MINDED OR EMPATHETIC!!! (they want always want empathy especially in women which is a bit sexist if you ask me) But that's the best thing I can tell you to do.

Also, Niji, that is not a good idea. They could come to your house and arrest you for ignoring it. You'd serve jail time for that. Tell your Mom to never do that again unless she thinks she would like jail. lol My mom works at a police station and she told me that. Tell your mom that she can call her the court house that summoned her to verify that. Just tell her not to give them any information like an address, phone number or name.
