"The most frightening thing about trial by jury is that your fate is in the hands of 12 people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty."
-Mark Twain
Its not just smarts. They provide a cardboard sandwich and $15 per day as payment so juries are typically the bottom tier of society intentionally.
Hm. Everywhere I've worked has provided full salary (one requested I remit the miniscule bit of jury duty pay).
Net result has been one half day of being in a jury pool in (redacted) years.
Salary from work is separate. City only provides a pittance good for homeless
Right. I'm only pointing out that in the event I'm called up many can serve without loss of job or income, so not all juries are dindus.
Of course many people with lives want to opt out, and it's easy enough to find a reason to get excluded if you want, but then that really does select doofi. (Latin plural of doofus).
