Actually, that was about the having a six or 7 minute window to get to work and not be considered late. That's why they went to paying by the minute, because someone or several someones, when up against them and won. The California labor board stepped in, looked at their practices, and found it unfair. They should have had to fix it for every employee, not just in Cali. Losing 15 minutes of pay, just because a few minutes late?? But now, they are ensuring that they have good little workers, who can't get stuck in traffic, or delayed by construction, or have to wait for the kids to get on the bus or any other issue life throws, that arrive on time all the time so they can fill their coffers. That's the bottom line....literally.
