Even though I get paid by my employer for jury duty

It was surprising and eye opening to hear the number of people who do not get paid for jury duty. The state pays us $12.50 a day, I have to return $5.00 to the government since I am on administrative leave, but several people just falt do not get paid by their employeer. Can you imagine being on the receiving end of their decisions?

"Hey, I don't get paid for this so you fry."

Yeah........kinda question I will make my little gator ask during the jury pool selection process. I don't want pissed people having to decide my future if it should ever come to such. I saw too many folks also who just get "screwed" financially for their imposed "public service".

Don't know the answer to the problem except my suggestion above if it's your hiney on the line !
