Wait, so you have to take vacation days for jury duty? Your employer doesn't have to give you leave? That's fucked up lol. Every time I think the US couldn't be more fucked than it already is, I get proven wrong lol.

You reminded me of an excellent quote: "the USA is not a first world country. It's 50 third world countries in a trench coat".

Yeah do they not legally have to pay you for it in the us or something? That's messed up

In most (maybe all) states, you do get paid by the state, but it is something hilariously low. In my state it is $20 a day I believe, which is not much above the minimum hourly wage for my area.

The assholes in my city don't even pay you enough to cover parking in the local parking garages they fucking recommend you use, let alone gas or meal expenses, for the day.

They pay you but it’s like enough for lunch.
