That link isn't very specific....the link I posted goes right to the actual beginning of the forms you need to file.
Good luck...you will have to do this someday, Syn....it's part of being a citizen, and it's not the state's fault you have financial difficulties, or transportation issues.

I meant to click on the stupidest website ever thread. I clicked on Kwea's link before reading the rest of the post and sat there going, how is this the stupidest website ever? Then I read the thread title and the rest of the post and it all made sense.

In my county in California, the pay is $15 per day after the first day (which I think might be $5 for that), plus mileage one-way and free parking. The hang-up on the parking is that the free lot is several blocks from the courthouses (yes, they've got one for criminal and one for civil), and you have to ride a trolley to and from the courthouses.
And Rivka...I doubt that the judge's position in my case is an uncommon attitude here in my county. This part of California is very conservative.

I hope you can find something and get a better job. After this job is over I will try my hand at temporary jobs again. On call jobs. Good luck! If all else fails, we could start a mafia...
Thanks for the thought. I really like my job, and I'm hoping that the cutback in hours is only temporary. Unfortunately, I'm not too hopeful about finding other work...it's still nasty around here in that way.
The semester is almost over, but I do tutoring, and I live right across the street from the local State University campus, so maybe I'll pick up some tutoring...if anyone can afford it after all the rate hikes.
See, that's the one thing I really hate about my job...I have to follow what the economy is doing and so I'm right up to date on how crappy it still is.
And, oops, this is probably a double post. Sorry.

Being an anarchist has its down sides, but one advantage is that I never have to worry about jury duty. Once they hear, "I'm sorry, I don't recognize the right of this court to pass sentence on anyone," they let you go pretty quickly.

Well, I rescheduled it for next week. The big problem is my hours have been DRASTICALLY cut. So I need every bit of money I can get my hands on. I sent the note last week, but I haven't heard anything in response. I am not sure what to do. I also have to apply for food stamps as well as I only worked two days this week and they only gave me five hours for next week... So, yeah, that is quite bad... And there's the cough too...
