I suggested it to Scott and believe he will bring it up with John Cleary.

Stop kidding yourself. Nobody complained because of two reasons first and foremost because every time we got paid four hours it only took us three minutes. Secondly because overtime pay went out the door contracts ago.
If what you were saying is true about we all worked 40 hours Monday through Friday and we deserve time and a half pay then many of us who cover extra work should be getting time and a half pay for Monday through Friday work. The bottom line here is no one (with probably me being the only exception) is willing to put their neck on the line for what they believe is right. And you just confirmed that yourself. Instead of saying that you would contact the Delegate, you say we shouldn't have to contact the Delegate.

@PROUD MEMBER ... Nobody complained because 4 hours amounted to more than time and a half. Nobody spent that long doing those PDFs. (We're getting them in 2 weeks, BTW).

This was different. The timer doesn't lie. We did our 40 hours Monday through Friday. The law says we get paid overtime after that. We shouldn't have to convince the union of that.

I agree but we won't get time and a half reason being is we have never gotten time and a half in the past for watching DOE or any other mandated videos on our personal time.
We've always gotten 4 hours straight time pay. The only difference from this time and the past is in the past it never actually took 4 hours but we got paid 4 hours and no one (at least that I heard of) complained about time and a half then. So the precedent has been set and nothing's going to change it now. The only shot at changing it now is if all of us go to the executive board and speak up. I've personally learned that will never happen. I've stood up and have spoken for members and when the shit hit the fan NOBODY wanted their names mentioned and I got shit on. Having said that if you want to call the Executive Board and complain I'll gladly second your opinion.

Quote from: PROUD MEMBER on June 08, 2026, 12:00:28 AMMy opinion is the Union should make sure each of us get paid a minimum of 7 hours which just happens to be how long it took me.

On our personal time? No ... at least time and a half.

If you add up all the minutes from each section that comes to 6 hours and 21 minutes.
Then we had 8 separate quizzes at say 4 minutes a piece for a total of 32 minutes.
Combined that comes to a minimum of 6 hours and 53 minutes. My opinion is the Union should make sure each of us get paid a minimum of 7 hours which just happens to be how long it took me.
