My Experience at Jury Duty

If you are an American Citizen you know exactly what it feels like to receive that letter in the mail stating, "You are summoned to Jury Duty." Whether, you're excited or not, the timing is always inconvenient. On September 22, 2009 I, for the first time, went to the Broward County Courthouse to fulfill my duty as a juror.

After waiting for about two hours, freezing to death and sleeping straight up with my wry eye open, I was called to a specific judge. Then, after about another hour, close to lunch time mind you, I was called into the court room. Without going into specifics, we were basically asked to give some information about each of us (the jurors). One of the questions was where we were employed. Here was my response:

"I work with the family business," I stated.  
"And what may that be?" The Judge asked me.
"My father invented a new company called PetPeePee," I answered.
"Oh? And what exactly is that?? That sounds interesting!" The Judge replied.
At this point I looked around the room to see the faces of the attorneys and the other jurors, and just like the Judge, they were all interested!
"Well, my Father invented a new system that guarantees to permanently remove dog and cat urine odor from carpets, furniture and things like that," I stated, then waited for the reply.
"Really?! Well, I think we could all use that!" The Judge replied with the other members in the room smiling and nodding their heads.

All I could think at that moment was that I am in an official Broward County Courthouse and here I am talking about PetPeePee and the Judge is genuinely interested!
And the shocks didn't stop there!  After exiting the room to await the list of dismissed or chosen jurors, one of the other jurors approached me and asked, "Does it really work and what is the website?"
I stated it really does work unlike anything else in the market and how remarkable the system really is. I told him the website (PetPeePee.com) and went on my way.

Thankfully I was dismissed later on but I will always remember how my first time at jury duty was very interesting and even Judges have dogs/cats that urinate in their home, who knew.
