    You get it, last week we sacrificed 10 minutes of our break…not a single positive thing was said, we got shit on for taking the remaining 5 minutes.

    Pay me a decent wage if you want to treat me like garbage, i already hate being there when people are acting normal.

      That’s a crime. You are entitled to a 15 minute break. If they shorten or remove that it is a federal crime. Next time that happens then document it and refuse to work. If they fire you, that’s an easy lawsuit.

        You are not entitled to any length of break under federal law. (Usa, obv, other countries different) However, you are entitled to the benefits that were listed when you employed, which mostly likely includes the 10 minute break. So it’s still wage theft. For 20 minutes, it’s probably better to try just documenting it and passing it over to the fed rather than suing.
