Have you ever experienced jury duty in San Francisco? Sarah from Mission Cheese tried it out last week and barely came away with her sanity intact:
Tuesday, as the visions of lollipops & rainbows fade into the distance, I walk through 4 consecutive blocks of puke-scented sidewalk (really, how can it last for that many blocks?!?) to arrive at the San Francisco Hall of Justice at 850 Bryant, to wait . . . Hours later I fill out an 8 page questionnaire & am told to return the following day at 10 am.
[On Wednesday] We are called back into the courtroom for yet another roll-call, and another 15 jurors are excused by the council. (ahhhhhhh!) Then, get this, we are told that due to some legal matters that have arisen, we are going to have to come back on Monday at 9 am to START the jury selection process.
See how this Larry David-esque legal drama unfolds (and how it threatened the future of Valencia’s first boutique cheese shop) here.
BTW, who else can’t wait for Mission Cheese to finally open?
