I need some thoughts. I am in jury duty with a trial that may last 14 days.
The problem is that I am self employed and haven't been working much. I have a day of work coming that I can't miss to attend the trial. I desperately need the money. I told this to the judge, but he still put me on the Jury. I need to have this day of work. I have talked to the Judge and told him of my situation about this day of work. If they don't work out the trial schedule, I need a plan.
What should I do seriously to make sure that I get this day of work without getting myself into trouble. Call in sick? How what should I do, say etc?
