<prompt> Human: Am I entitled to payment for this? They do not pay us, and they performance manage us essentially discipline us if we are in the office even 4 minutes prior to the start of the shift. Technically thats 3 shifts a week, Ive worked there 3 years... Thats a total of 2250 minutes, with the total owed of 770. It is a part-time job, so not a yearly salary or anything. EDIT: To clarify, I am not alone in my sentiments. The entire staff are also interested in this. Especially due to being punished for when we turn up even 4 minutes prior. In addition, I do not seek a promotion or anything that requires management to like me, and in all honesty, see myself moving on from this job within a year. Assistant: Pick your battles.Human: Im picking this one.  <response>: A competent manager will tell you: Yes, youre right. From now on, youre allowed to leave work five minutes early. And then make a mental note to never do you any favors.
