I work remotely as a contractor and I like my job, but I have been noticing my boss keeps giving me work to do at 2:40pm when my shift ends at 3pm… these reports are expected to be sent out the same day and he keeps sending them late or the email doesn’t have the attachment. He knows when my shift ends and I don’t understand why he keeps trying to make me work past my shift. I’m afraid of either being taken advantage of or risk losing my job for not making him happy… my Dad says that because of my pay and working remote, do what makes him happy to keep the job, but I don’t want my boss to think this is ok… we agreed on the time I am working… but if he breaks this agreement, I should just quit? I don’t want to quit this job… would I have any legal protections in the USA; to not be fired for working past agreed hours as a contractor?
