I got summoned last Wednesday. Had to fill out a questionare and appear again today.
Today...from 9-430, about 40 of us did nothing but sit on a chair and hear jury selection questioning on 18 potential jurors. That was the most boring 8 hours of my life. EVAR. Now I got to appear again tomowrow morning and hope that I get excused when I get called up.
Missing 3 days is really going to hurt me financially

I dont mind serving for 1-3 days...but this trial is expected to last 6 weeks. That's going to hurt.
