If you are at work in the middle of the night when the clocks change, do you work an extra hour in the spring and one less in the fall?

      They were probably breaking labor laws if they weren’t paying you for the DST extra hour you worked. They have to compensate you for actual time worked.

      My friend is a night shift nurse and he just told me that his job turns that hour into overtime. Because the rules is a shift is a very specific set of hours and anything above that is thrown into overtime pay.

      Are y’all unionized?
