My Jury Duty Experience

I have never had to server Jury Duty. I registered to vote the day I turned 18 but one way or another I have been able to get out of Jury Duty each time I am called, until a few days ago. They had requested me to come in this past Tuesday at 7:45am and so there I was bright and early in a very large crowded room with a ton of other people who were even more upset to be there. About a half hour after sitting down in the waiting room the head lady started reading off names and court rooms. I was assigned to the old court room accross the street from the new court room and was required to wait for a deputy to take us across the street. What was worse about this was that they let about 100 people go for the day right after calling my group court room.
