I just had jury duty and I only got a check for $17.20, Kathy.

My employer pays me in full for the day, but if I get any money, I have to pay it to them!
I just postponed to the week before Christmas because I cannot do it during theatre-- that is just lunacy. I also have a horrible feeling that if I get to the part where they are questioning me, I will get picked. Especially in interviews I seem really honest and non-judgemental, and I feel like the defense would like me and the prosecution wouldn't hate me. But who knows.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I would totally want you on my jury, Sophia.

I did jury duty in June. It was amazingly informative - and for the only time in my life I felt like a citizen (as opposed to "some faker who lives here and other people believe belongs").
I only got $10/day - and my employer didn't kick any money in. Contracting sucks.

Oh, I get paid by work, too. We used to have to turn over our checks to the company, but they don't have us do that anymore.
Are you on call tomorrow, too, sara?

Yup. They send out a slew of summons, numbered, but at 5 PM the day before post just a certain range of numbers that have to go downtown to sit all day.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Hit a brick wall at work and can't even begin to try seeing a point in doing anything there. I want to be able to just let it roll off my shoulders, to say "fine" in a non-bitter, non-passive-aggressive manner. Wish I could say "how high?" and be happy being the dirty grunt, just a supportive cog. Wish I had a wish that wasn't bitter, god I need to get over myself.
