I like being picked.
Not only is it a paid day(s) off, I find it interesting.
Ive been on one jury (civil case)

Mine always get settled, would enjoy.

Went twice but both cases were settled. It would be better if you could bring your cell phone but it was a paid day off. Got to sleep late go there a couple hours, take a long lunch go back for an hour and call it a day.

Only time that I got picked, it was settled. I would enjoy it just to do something different for a few days.

I've never been picked but I desperately want to be.

I enjoyed it the one time I did it.
I was out of work for 2 days. I got a free stay in a nicer hotel, free meals, and gas reimbursement since I had to drive 100 miles to the courthouse.
Plus, I got to handle drugs and guns.

I enjoy it, and the last time I was the jury foreman in a criminal case.

I liked it. Federal jury, criminal case involving the Banditos biker gang. Pretty interesting.

Id love to serve on one but have only been summoned once and didnt get picked.

I like to watch the process....I have been on three juries--one Medicaid fraud, one a guy was attacked by a pit bull, and one was a shooting. We only completed the pit bull trial and gave the dude some money--the others settled.

I would actually enjoy watching the process from that side of the courtroom. Of course, no one would ever keep me on a jury. Seems like an unwritten rule of lawyers that you bump the lawyers off...although I did keep a tax lawyer on a jury once.

I think that would be interesting too
However, I associate courtrooms with work, so I'll pass on having to go into one as a paid day off. Catch-22
