> As soon as someone steps foot (or tire) on the premises, the clock starts ticking. In retail the idea of premises could be very fuzzy. After all the mall may not be owned and in all likelihood not owned by Apple. In retail you are often asked to park at the back of the mall for good reasons, one of them being that customers park up front. Secondly I can just imagine Tim Cook in a pair of running shoes parking his car and walking as fast as he can to the door, and he does it in 2 minutes so everyone else must as well. Damn those 6'1 people if you are only 5'6. If it is a 2 minute fast walk and you take 4 minutes casual, then you get docked. I cannot claim I am working if I am have a 3 hour lunch break on company property. But it is easier to consider that the commute to work is the employee's responsibility, it would be the most common and logical case. Work being where you actually do the work and not where you go to work.
