A Distant Memory...

Dateline - Gainesville, GA - Perhaps my consecutive days of blogging at home are nearing an end. Because of my views on the death penalty, it is likely that I am NOT going to be selected for jury duty.

Since this was/is a death penalty case, the question was asked whether I could impose such a sentence. Truthfully, I can not. There was a time I could, but that time has long since left me.

I always come to the thought that at the end of the day, if I end up putting someone else to death, what makes me any different than that person? I would just be justifying why I killed someone (as they did if they had in fact killed a person) That is just not something that I can live with.

So, it is likely that I will be back on the road on Thursday, which is OK with me. I have taken a good number of phone calls this week from customers, so in some regards I have been working from the "home office" as they call it at my company.

Some other job opportunities have come my way and they are going to warrant serious consideration. But not until I got a bit more info. I know the pay would be even better than what I am receiving presently, but I have to think about more than just pay, so that is why I have to listen to the whole offer.

With jury duty now a distant memory, my rest time is over. But it was one that I also needed.
