Bosses seem to think being on time means being 15 minutes early.
Thoses bosses can go right to hell. You want me working 15 minutes early, you better begin paying me 15 minutes early. I'm not your friend. We have a transaction going between us; I provide specific work between a specific period of time, and you give me money.
A boss making you clock in early is f’d up. Being a little early to clock in on time is fine. I’m not working for free, though.
Nah, it's not fine. The time it takes me to clock in and clock out is your time, not mine.
If I need to be ready for work at a certain time, pay me to be there early enough to be ready by that time.
I uses to do help desk; I showed up 15 minutes to have my cups of coffee as I browsed on my phone. End users complained that they saw me not doing anything/assisting them as I was off the clock.
Boss told me to knock it off and work. So I ended up showing 15-30 minutes early to work and clock in that sweet extra time. Near the end of my employment, boss complained to me that I been racking in too much overtime.
Make it make sense.
