Antiwork

I’ve been looking for a new job. My company sucks and I’m ready to jump ship. I work in tech, but I’m a major account executive. I took an interview with another tech company that reached out to me. They asked what time worked for me and I said 10am. *this is relevant to the story Before the interview I look the company up. They have absolutely terrible employee reviews. People are under paid, over worked, miserable. So I decide it’s not the place for me and I immediately email the gentleman ‘B’ I am interviewing with and say I’m going to pass on the opportunity.. thank you for your consideration.. blah blah.

Our work is doing an outing down a river for 4 hours. People are supposed to work 3 hours and then drive an hour for the trip and float down a river in 90 degree weather for 4 hours.

I have melanoma and I cannot endure the sun this long but now I have to go 5 hours short this pay period. Is this legal? Michigan btw.
