Meanwhile in Freedumb land my boss takes the mandatory lunch break (unpaid) and slaps an extra 45 minutes on the “8 hour day” so he doesn’t lose any productivity, but we’re essentially here for 9 hours not 8… Since it’s unpaid and we aren’t clocked in by law we do “40” so no overtime but it’s really more like 45…
It’s not only in the US. In Spain, my company mandates a minimum of 30 minutes of unpaid break. This is so they can avoid giving you the 15minutes paid break mandated by law (how does it make sense? I don’t know). On. 40 hour work week.
