There's a special satisfaction that comes with finding a successful loophole to get around a silly workplace policy. Especially when it comes to getting paid fairly for all the work you do.
Now, you know that nurses have to put up with a ton of nonsense on the job that makes saving lives more challenging than it already must be. However, this bureaucratic silliness sounds like way too much. This Redditor shared their story via this thread on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit, which detailed how their new manager started to enforce a strict "no overtime" policy. This meant that nurses could not work more than seven minutes after they clocked out. Now, it's not like these nurses want to stay longer, but saving lives takes time and they were encouraged to rush their work so they wouldn't have to request overtime pay. Imagine learning that the people responsible for your health and well-being were being told to rush on the job. Luckily, OP and their fellow nurses found a loophole: if they had to work, say, 45 minutes overtime, their manager had no choice but to pay them. So, you can just imagine what they chose to do.
