Jury duty: clicked wrong button

Hi. Probably a daft question.

I was called for jury duty earlier (I've served quite a few times), and in the middle of doing something else, accidentally clicked on "Don't ask me again" rather than the "not now" option. Does that mean I'll never be asked to serve ever again? If so, is there any way to undo it (in my profile it still shows me as willing to serve)?

About four lines down you can click willing or unwilling to be on a jury.

As I said above, in my account profile it still shows me as willing to serve. My question's about what clicking on "Don't ask me again" did.

I just got called for jury service again.

I still dont know what clicking the "Don't ask me again" button does, as opposed to "Not now," though.

If you change your mind, you can go to your "My Account" page and set your preference "Willingness to serve on a DU Jury" to "Willing".

I hadn't been back to this thread for a while, so I hadn't seen your reply till now.

The funny thing was, when I checked "My Account" after clicking in error, the setting hadn't changed from "Willing."

I've since served a few times anyway, so no problem.
