Jury duty

[Iain]

At least you can't be called for jury duty again, for I think 10 years.

I am exempt due to my having worked with undesirables, this applies to POlice, solicitors, prison staff etc etc.

[silentC]

I must be exempt too then because I am an undesirable.

I'll second that your honour!



when i was on jury duty whenever the professional liar mentioned something before the court (Ie asked a quesiton of a witness or pontificated some crap) we the jury were always in giggles as what we "heard" was "And another $50 your honour"...... Of course this being a reference to how the barrister charges in 7 min increments for thier time.... fits of giggles from us and nasty looks from the liars.

we were constantly in giggles as both the prosecuting liar and the defensive liar were such hams... whenever one of them said something to us (eg the defensive liar) wnet on about how the defendant was of "such good character... blah blah" the prosecuting liar would give the jury a rolled eyes or huff of breath or other signal that signified "this guy is full of $hit" etc....

, surely there's some onus on those who run the system to do so efficiently.

X 10 gazillion

Having recently been through an unpleasant work-related experience with someone else's solicitor, I can only say I hope that dolphin had a very sharp nose.
