jury duty
I got a jury summons. I would like to do my civic duty and show up. I've done it before and I'll do it again. But the business would fall apart if I was not here. I'm the only admin, number cruncher, new location set up supervisor, new location scout, receptionist, registrar, marketing director, website updater, contract negotiator, customer service rep and sales person this business has. Do you think if I wrote a letter explaining that the business can't run without someone here doing all those things that they might let me out of jury duty? It's either that or show up for one day and prejudice myself. But I would have to do that on about 4 hours sleep since they make you show up so early.
