I'm currently serving on a grand jury for a 4 week term, hearing numerous cases every day. The level of perspective it has provided into the legal system has been fascinating, and seeing all of these different cases unfold through witness testimony is a really interesting experience, though it is often emotionally draining.

The flip side of my situation is that, as a rather recently hired engineer at a young and quickly moving startup, it's not really a replacement for my job this month, as it is for most of the others I sit with. It's a second job, unless I want to fall behind and lose a lot of what I've worked for.
