Blatant Wage Theft

Recently went to HR (I know, I know, but I thought it was a supervisor problem, not higher up) to complain about my supervisor editing our clock in and clock out times every single day. I can kinda understand the clock in time as we all start actually working at the same time (shift work). But the clock out? We aren't getting paid for working past out shift. Granted a few minutes here and there may be only $20 on a check but still! Anyway.. When I mentioned this to HR and how it was wage theft, she immediately told me that our times were “hard set” by Boise Cascade -corporate policy- and that if I didn't like it, I was free to talk to the company lawyers. I backed down because I need a steady income more than the $20 or so they steal a week…
