I had an employer who would tell us that we were committing “Time Theft” any time we were on the clock and not actively working on something at any moment of the day. When California DoL started cracking down on my city, my employer started complaining about government overreach and “State Sanctioned Time Theft” when he was required to give us 2x 15 min breaks on the clock on top of a whopping 30 minutes off the clock for lunch.
I had an employer who tried to make us clock out if we were at work and there was no actual work for us to do.
Thankfully, he was the sort of employer you could literally say “go fuck yourself” to and not get fired. Which every one of the handful of employees at his small business did. So he went back on that.
