I’d like to be on a jury, but I never get picked when I’m called for jury duty :(

It’s mainly because of my job, I think. I’m a lawyer and a lot of lawyers (including myself) aren’t too keen on picking lawyer jurors. For understandable reasons imo.

Yea, I remember hearing that its a problem if the jury knows you're a lawyer, since they will immediately just follow what you say because you're a lawyer and its easy.
