Location: Florida, USA.
I work at a fast food chain, I typically am asked to clock in a few minutes early and leave a few minutes late everyday (I usually have to wait for a manager to log me out of the register). A few days ago I asked a coworker to check my hours because i didn't want to do the math to calculate my hours, As we were doing this I noticed one of my shifts clock out times was 3:00pm which i found odd because it's usually got a minute or two after. looking at the day shows it was edited to three, and the reason being listed as "No punch out".
When you clock out at my work it automatically prints a receipt with your name, clock in and out times, the date, and the total hours, minutes, and seconds that shift. My receipt for that day is listed as 4:08pm.
On that day, I was supposed to clock out at 3:00PM, however I usually work until 4:00pm so I didn't think to check the schedule. I worked until four and clocked out like usual without any manager saying a thing, however the next day I found out some managers were angry I stayed that long
I added up all the hours and calculated that my total hours for the week is short if you go off of my clock out receipt time.
TLDR: I accidentally stayed an hour extra at work. They changed my hours to the time I was supposed to leave and the reason was listed as "No punch out" Even though I have the clock out slip and worked the hour.
Am I entitled to that pay? I thought it was illegal but I don't want to say anything if its not?
