If you can't get out of it completely another option is to ask to be put on Grand Jury duty instead of the regular jury. Typically standard jury duty is every day for a week or two. Grand jury duty, at least here in NH, meets once a month for ~ 6 months. I'm not sure if that would be any better for you but now you know it is an option. I remember my father taking that option once as it was easier for him to take one day off a month for six months or so instead of being out of work all at once.
