31. Well, off the top of my head
For one, not make it mandatory. Most of the people in the waiting room are grumbling and complaining which of course makes the whole room irritated.

Then waiting for hours and hours before even going to the jury selection process is a painful waste of time. This process should be streamlined.

And make the compensation worthwhile, or at least increase it to more than the couple of bucks they throw at you. Many people in the room are in jobs which do not compensate for days off for jury duty. In expensive cities such as Chicago, it costs twice as much just to spend a day downtown than what they pay you.
