Just a little curious: how many people have “dodged” jury duty when they’ve been called for it?

“... how many people have “dodged” jury duty when they’ve been called for it?”

I, for one, have not dodged jury duty. Granted, I haven’t been thrilled when called but never dodged it. In fact, the last time I went (about 18 months ago), I came down with a stomach flu. I took Tylenol for my fever and waited seven hours before being dismissed. Now, I will admit if I am ever called to be on an extended, sequestered one... I wouldn’t be thrilled. Not because of not wanting to do my civic duty but because I don’t have anyone to take care of our kids (unless they allow my husband that time off to do so?). Just a thought.
