If I had to get out of it, I'd just say I was a racist/republican/xenophobe etc etc to be instantly dismissed.

That being said, there is something patriotic about doing one's (jury) duty.

Well I can get out of it quite easily, I am in an operational role within the emergency services and that is one of the things you can be officially excused for, so I will talk to work about it and see what they have to say.

Part of me really wants to do it, not just cuz of patriotism or anything like that, but mostly because there are so many turds out there who can't/don't think and don't understand the seriousness of it all and just make assumptions. Who knows tho? :) We'll see!

I almost had it once but then I moved. Lucky! It sounds fun, if it's an interesting case anyway.

Yeah I kinda want to do it, for many reasons. But I will see if it gets in the way of my job or not, as I really love my job and I don't particularly want to jeopordise it in any way! :)

I can't say I've been in a centrelink office lately.. not for a good 10 or so years I don't think. I take it they haven't changed too much!! Uncomfy row of chairs with a TV showing trash tv that you can't hear anyway? At least that's what the last licensing centre I went to was like!

I have done dury duty. It was a rather silly case but we got a free lunch out of it :)

On a different note, are you interested in purchasing Avon products? I do a brochure drop every few weeks not far from where you work in the city. I could drop one off to you if you want?

yeah well I am going to talk to work about it, see what they say! haha :)

I think we have Avon stuff at work and my mum does it also, and in saying all of that I don't really use any avon myself. But thanks, and I'll check at work anyway. :)
