Is this considered time clock theft?

I have not been on a time clock in years so I have a hard time understanding. My situation is this. I had to leave the office 10 minutes early. So instead of staying one day for an extra 10 minutes, I split it into 2 days for five minutes. For example, I clocked in at 7:29 and left at 4:34, on the other day I clocked in at 7:30 and stayed until 4:35. It clearly shows my punches but the time clock rounded the extra time to exactly 8 hours for each day.

In essence, I guess this means if I clock out 1 minute earlier than I am supposed to for the 8 hour period, it still gives me 8 hours although it was 7hr and 59 minutes. I bet my boss would then have something to say about that and would say your punches show this. I may be far off in my assumptions, but what do you think. I think time clocks counted additional time worked over 8 hours and that it did not round it to 8.

Thanks,
