Haha. What about a cloud network security engineer that works with law enforcement from time to time to catch people who steal movies? I hear that lawyers like people who they can Obi-Wan.
This was for a criminal case, but it was obvious that if you had a bias for/against law enforcement, you were out. Two people that got selected were a commercial airline pilot and a drywall hanger.
Seriously the magic phrase seems to be "I don't feel I'll be able to be impartial in this case". If you can come up with a plausible reason, you should be home free (unless the judge smells bullshit).
My latest jury duty case was a Mexican charged with first degree murder of two people. I got out by telling them that Trump was the bestest prez evar and the wall should be put up yesterday.
I don't have a problem with doing jury duty. My employer fully compensates for it, plus I get to keep the pittance that the city pays jurors. I just made the comment that locally they don't seem to pick engineers very often. If I was a defendant I'd want thinking jurors instead of a bunch of people who don't care.
