Yeah, assuming a half hour unpaid lunch that's ~~^10^~~ 9 hour days, meaning their salary is for a ~~^50^~~ 45 hour week. On top of that, the US courts have ruled that unpaid overtime is entirely valid for salaried workers.

I am too tired right now to figure out why this isn't 9 hours+lunch.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 6 points 3 weeks ago

You're right, my brain went the wrong way with the half hour and considered 7:00-17:00.

Here's one attempt: "am or pm?", answer: "yes!..."

I think it's When you start working is not necessarily when you arrive at the office.
