I’d love to serve on a case like this or similar however being self-employed the 28 days or even a week long trial would cost me dearlyI agree.
I just wish so many people didn't receive their jury summons with a groan... it's an important duty for everyone. I feel everyone should, if at all possible, serve on a jury. Since the pay, food, parking costs, etc. are often poor, sub-par, and/or problematic, I think employers should compensate their employees if at all possible.

Sitting there estimating what Harpootlian & Griffin are pulling in would fry me
