ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

`Why me? Why me in particular? Like out of all the people here in this state why me? I was summoned years ago and now I have to do it again. Why is it me that has to do all the things I hate?

You can get a note from your doctor stating you aren't mentally fit for jury duty

False alarm. Apparently it's for Jury selection is what my mom told me. She said we can just sign the paper and send it right back.

Well,you are not the first person to have that reaction!

Go and put on a show.

Tell them if you get selected for jury duty, you'll kill yourself. That should get you out of it. It may get you sectioned, too, but at least you'd not have to serve.

I've never been summoned for jury duty, but don't you get paid for it? At least you get money lol

You get reimbursed for gas

Tell them you serve as a priest in the flying spaghetti monster cult and can't make an impartial judgement without influence from your faith

Or you are a violent anarchist and beieve the government has no right to make laws

Or you have had COVID-19 for a month and, *honestly*, its looking like this is going to be a long one

Or your friend's cousin's child is about to die and you are going to help take care of them every once in a while (erm idk maybe 1-2 days a year) for their last 5 years on this wretched planet

Or your whole family just died in a fiery plane crash and you have to be at the funeral (bonus points if you use the same reason next year)

Or your bone spurs and ache-y joints make moving your body far too difficult, youd get a doctors note but you dont have money/time

Or just act like a crazed psychopath so they mark you as "ineligble" or move you to the "do-not-call" list. It may seem daunting but if you follow the first 6 points above I promise this won't be too difficult.
