I recently got a summons to appear for a grand jury in Philadelphia. From what I understand, if I'm selected I would have to appear up to two days a week for at least 18
months and possibly 24 months! I work full time as an oncology nurse 7a-7p, three days a week, including weekends and holidays. I am very concerned about how this is going to effect my work schedule. I don't mind serving and doing my "civic duty" but I am concerned about missing out on hours, affecting my paychecks, leaving my floor short staffed and on short notice. I'm waiting to hear back from my HR department, but was wondering if anyone had the experience with serving on a grand jury.
