I completed my jury service on Monday and was informed that I would receive $40. Was I supposed to get that on Monday or will they mail me a check? Never had jury duty before. TIA

They hand out checks as you're leaving in Alabama.

The $12 per day we get in louisiana is a joke.

They should just get people registered for unemployment or retirement to sit on juries.

Thankfully the courthouse here is 2 blocks from my office, so when I did have some breaks during the day I could walk over and actually do some work. I was there 2 days total. My check basically covered my lunch the two days I was stuck in Jury Duty.
