I work in a stressful environment .Its low paid and very full on from start to finish. I like the work though which is why I stay and I rarely have sick leave.
Ive just had a jury duty letter.
I intend to reply that yes I can do it and there will be no problem getting released from work as its local government.
My query is - what if they dont want me for the whole 2 weeks? I will be granted special leave which can be extended if the case is expected to last longer. But a friend told me that her JD ended within a few days.
Do I just toddle back to work or would I not be expected back until the end of the special leave? Im not asking my manager as she will definitely say yes in answer to the question but Im pretty sure that if it was her she wouldnt come back early. No-one would know anyway probably.
Have you been in this situation and what did you do?
