I saw a judge in Barrie tell a contractor who worked on new house construction that self employed is no excuse to get out of jury duty
the guy said if he doesn't get back to the job he will lose the contract, which is his work for the next 2 years, Judge said hire someone to take your place..guy said I could but it will take a month or 2 to train someone to do the work the way it needed to be done just to be laid off in a few weeks when I am back to work ....Judge said not my problem
