Ah yes, we can hardly have the volunteers taking a whole week off work can we.

We could make it be like jury duty...

They aren't volunteers, they are paid. OK it's only for 1 day, but when I did it I got about £500 (about 10 years ago). I doubt you would find it hard to get more people willing to do it as the pay is pretty good and as I recall all that was involved was 1 evening training.

Crikey! I had no idea they got paid for it. That's amazing. I wonder where you sign up.

The local council organises it. There may be details on your council website. I only got the job because I knew someone who had done it before. I suspect the same people do it every time. It's very boring, but the pay was good (although only for 1 day obviously).
