I begin jury duty tomorrow. Remarkably, my first time. What should I expect, Americans?

Tedium but take it seriously. The parties need you to give a shit. Donβt be bullied by strong personalities and fuckin stick to your guns.
I'm that strong personality. π«‘
Excellent. Judges are retarded but juries can correct for this if people take the task seriously. They donβt but you can make a difference. Apply the law. Resist splitting the baby.
tfw you read the replies and didn't try to get out of it.

Begin jury duty ?
Were you selected to serve on one, or just part of a jury pool ?
Just a pool, so far.
Well then, expect to be dismissed for one reason or another.
If you're put on a civil case, expect a lot of pettiness that nobody else cares about; and at the end, expect to be asking yourself "Jesus, don't these people have anything better to do than waste everyone's time?"
