Re: Jury Duty
Have not served on Jury Duty before.
Your company might pay you the difference, ask your HR about it.

Re: Jury Duty
Yep, I showed up, then I got dismissed at noon for lack of anything to do. Bring something to read. Last time Amber went, not a single trial even called a jury that day.
I'm not hourly or nothing, so I get paid regardless of whether I show up. However, I am required to hand in the $10 per day or whatever that Oregon pays in order to receive my salary.

Re: Jury Duty
However, if you're subject to the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) you should ask. If I remember correctly, Argon ST provides a charge number for jury duty.Dwindlehop wrote:I'm not hourly or nothing, so I get paid regardless of whether I show up.
Defense contractors take time charging very seriously since the data feeds into future work estimates.
Re: Jury Duty
The date is in October, so I dunno what program I'm on specifically but it won't be a for the government (I'm working for le french atm). From my coworker have said I just use the normal "Personal Buisness" (since here we dont get sick leave hours, just charge numbers they monitor incase anyone abuses)
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.
