It's freakin wrong.
I used to do mailing for a company at $8.50 an hour and tax. It was monkey work. I cheated on all my hours and had paid 2 hour lunch breaks. No one complained so I didn't care. There were 3 other workers too. In the summer I used to work 12 hours a day and I made so much money. All of it was spent on food though. Such a waste.
11 months later they realized that machines could do the work faster, and at a remarkably lower price. Simply put, I was replaced by a machine.
I hope your example will make the 'cheaters' realize what might eventually happen if they continue doing it...
you're saying that if I keep doing what I do, which is rounding to the nearest half hour then I'll eventually get replaced by a machine? I doubt it. If they're going to replace me with a machine they'll do it no matter what, not because I cost them an extra hours of pay.
