Although I haven't been invited to be on a jury, I've had a couple of offers/invitations to be involved in things where people have assured me that the locations were accessible, that I'd have a place to sit when needed, etc. I appreciated their sensitivity, but realized they had no clue that I have equally serious issues that have nothing to do with using a cane or sitting down.
I have been called several times. I go and waste a day. I tell the truth, I watch a lot of Law & Order. Now that I have Criminal Investigations, I am addicted to Crime 360 ad the First 48. After I tell them that, I am excused. Court is at 26th & California, the county jail campus. It's that big and it is very depressing. My first time there it was sunny outside but I crossed the street to the jail campus it was cloudy.
