Commute time shouldn't be paid for.
Sitting in a hotel room, that is questionable.
Shift ends at closing time, then you are done work, and you can go home. If they expect you to stay and clean, close, chase out the last customers, then they need to pay you.
- stegosaurus 11y agoThe fact you consider hotel room time 'questionable' shows how far the table is stacked in favour of the employers. You exist in a place you have no control over, far away from family, with dramatically curtailed freedom over activities you can perform. It doesn't matter whether you are 'labouring'. You wouldn't be there otherwise. Doing that for free is selling yourself short.
