Posting this with particular questions in mind but have been bouncing the reason for 2 different pay codes around my head for a while.
Management likes to hit me with the "do you want your 8 hours question"
Ok i understand the question if I come in under 8 hours but for example yesterday I started at 0900, took 30 min unpaid lunch on road, came in ready to punch out at 1710..
8 hours paid under code 6. 7.6ish paid under code 5 right?
They ask me if I want my 8 hours or take a code 5...
So the question is if they "guarantee" 8 hours of work but I still have to give ups 8.5 hours of my time to get 8 hours of pay then what in the monkey nuts is the point of having a code 6 guarantee anyway???
I can see it when working longer than 9 hours or something like that to protect your 30 mins lunch but if im on the clock a few minutes longer than 8 hours on a code 6 punch should I not get paid my 8? Instead of having to find 20 minutes of work to still only get paid my 8?
Just curious what yalls thoughts are? Management is sheisty we all know that, but next time should I push them saying I've been at work for over 8 hours of course i want my 8 hours...
