Grand jury duty is worse because you have to be there for weeks at a time potentially. Whereas in regular jury duty you are assigned to a trial, which usually lasts 1-2 days if they don't settle or plead out. The only time a trial lasts weeks is if it's an absolutely gigantic case over millions of dollars or a murder case.
