Hi Brenda,
I wanted to reach out regarding a small observation I made in your last email. In telling me how to spend 30 minute meal break and encouraging me to cut it short for the company’s benefit, you violated US labor law.
Let’s correct this behavior and try to be more mindful of that “our company is not above the law” spirit so we can keep your momentum going in the right direction. :-)

US Labor Law
HahahahahahHahahahahahahahah*wheeze*HAHHAHAHAHA
There are no US laws requiring work breaks. Less than 10 states edit: around 20 have laws that require one.
In the vast majority of states you could be asked to work a 16 hour shift with zero breaks entirely legally. Most employers do have break policies but it is not law.
The US Department of Labor site lists 20 states and 2 territories.
All 50 states though require you are compensated for your work. So if this is a non-salary position still illegal if the break period is unpaid.
Additionally if his work contract garuntees the break period that still has legal standing

True, however it isn’t said in the photo that they should not clock back in.
work contract
Employment contracts are extremely rare or non-existent in the US.

Not at all, very common for salary positions
I work salary and in my industry I’ve never heard of it. I’m sure they exist but I cannot imagine why any company would do it.
Maybe at executive levels?
