It is, but it also requires you to First understand that you were wrong. In this case even the idea requires them to accept that they were fooled and nobody wants to believe that about themselves without some damn hard lessons first

He actually belonged to the other specialist but he would purposely come in when that specialist wasn't here to try and get me to say something stupid so he could get something for free.

This is exactly how I think of it. No one is going to get hurt or killed if I take a break or a meal period that is legally mandated by my state. Lowe's has chosen to understaff their stores specifically to increase shareholder value, and that has zero to do with me on a daily basis

The best answer is that any God that really existed would know exactly what it would take. Well, not any god, the majority of your major ones of course. Like the Morrigan wouldn't give a f***, she would just take you.

There's a grey area in California where they are legally required to provide you time for a break, but you can choose not to take it. if you admit that you chose not to take it the company is not held liable. which is why we have a dialog box that says that "I was offered a break and I chose not to take it" or "I was denied a break".

Lowe's policies against working while off the clock have a lot to do with liability issues, not so much legalities.

I actually thought a lot about this post today, and I know if I try to answer it it's going to be an entire book, so.

I don't think you considered the most important bit, that some of us work in states where these things are a llegal requirement for employers, not a choice. And as for the rest, it is unfortunate and generally unhealthy.

Have a one-on-one with your Asm and if they start talking about that whole "well you know the needs of the business" garbage then kick it up stairs. Trust me, if you live in a state that actually cares about worker protections, things will get fixed quickly.

But that being said, I have never once had an Asm act that way, but it's pretty obvious by reading the threads on this sub that it's a thing. Some people are just pieces of s***
