Yesterday I started my shift as a key holder(still in training) as the store manager left the store leaving myself and one other person alone for about an hour. Being a retail location and memorial day weekend it was insanely busy. And there was no one to cover her department. About an hour later the MOD came in. The other person I was working with told him they hadn't had their lunch yet and it was already an hour past their 5th hour.
He told her to go and to not clock out and he would manually ad her punch so that she “didn't violate” and get written up. To my knowledge A: that's illegal and B: she's owed an hour pay. correct?
I've seen so many red flags at this place that I've been frantically searching for another job. Starting with the “Union Free Environment” section in the employees handbook.
