i wouldn't mind serving if i had a regular job and would get paid for it. but since i am considered self employed, i have to eat that cost, and lost that time.

what if i got selected to be on a jury for a trial that last several weeks? fling and aac are good people, but i don't think they would be compensating me for my time, nor should they. and what would i tell clients? "sorry, you're beat, i got sequestered."?

the dynamic changes a little bit when you are your own boss. maybe if they actually fairly compensated you it would be a different story, but honestly i just can't afford to lose that time. i've got important shit to do.

-edit- and as a side note, i actually do hate cops that much
