Re: [Rant] People Who Gripe About Jury Duty
I have no problem serving (I get paid by my job for jury duty) and would like to volunteer so I can serve my civic duty.
What I don't like about the process is how I get a notice which says call two weeks from today, on a Friday, after 5pm, so we can tell you -IF- we -might- need you to come in to see if you -might- get picked for a jury.
Say Phoenix - we need you to come down for Jury Duty, here's our schedule, let us know what works for you and be there. That would be so much simpler wouldn't it?

If your job didn't pay you, I bet you'd view your "civic duty" differently! Can't speak for him, but I know I don't. When I served jury duty, I was not aware that I was going to get paid by my employer. But I did my job, and served as a juror for 5 days. When I returned back to work, I gave them the documentation and they informed me that I would still get paid for the days I was out. It was a nice surprise. |
