I've done jury service and it really isn't anything to worry about. I was there for the whole two weeks and sat on the jury for 3 cases, all lasting for 2-3 days each. It was so interesting to see how a court works and to follow the details of the cases. I really enjoyed it.

The majority of cases are pretty short so it's unlikely that you will be there for longer than 2 weeks, and as others have said, you might not get called at all.

You will know by about 10-11am each day whether you have been called and, if you are not, you can go home or return to work if you want to. However, there is no need to go into work if you are sent home as either way, you will definitely be paid, even if you should be required to be there longer than 2 weeks - your employer cannot sack you if that happens to be the case.

No need to worry about any of these things, and I'm sure you will enjoy it when the time comes.
