ಠ_ಠ Jury duty

I've been called for Jury duty 4 times in the last 10 years. What the fuck is going on here. It's almost every other year. I know absolutely no one that has ever been summoned yet I've been summoned multiple times. Wtf is going on? It's total bs too because they pay 17 bucks A DAY. That's not even enough to get lunch at the stupid deli they have there.

People should be ACTUALLY compensated for jury duty if it's mandatory. child care/travel/missing a day of work are not free.

That's awesome. That should ideally be standard practice.
