I've never had to go, but since I'm both a plantiff's and defendant's attorney nightmare (from a civil standpoint), it's unlikely that I'll ever sit on a civil jury (lawyers don't like people who understand what liability actually is). I'm probably not fit for criminal jury duty since I have so many policeman friends and tend to think that district attorneys don't file charges against people without very good reason.
My greatest fear is that I'd somehow get drafted into duty for something like the Enron or OJ trial and be there for months on end. That would kill my career.
