Nope! The only laws that really apply to those are which breaks are paid and which are not. If you are given any breaks, 20 minutes or less must be paid and count towards OT. Anything over can be off the clock.

My bf has a discord server with his friends too. Whenever one of this is online, they hop in the voice channel and just hang out. If someone else logs in, they chat, otherwise they just leave it up.
There’s no federal law in the US that requires them to give you a lunch break. My state doesn’t have one either.
Check your local laws. In many states, there is no requirement that you take a lunch. There is no federal requirement for that either.
I’ve had employers tell me that that I legally had to clock out for a certain amount of time, but that’s bullshit. It might be company policy but it’s not a law.
Also, this applies to teens working too. The laws are bad. Found this out when Subway was making my 16 yr old niece work 9-12 hour shifts with no lunch break.

I’m sorry but that’s not a dog. That’s a potato. Still a very good boy.

Looks like it’s about 5km north of the border. It’s a suburb of Montreal. Most of the lake is in the US, but the tip is in Canada.

He is FAST. I speculate if I took the time to do agility training, he would dominate. But we’re content doing walks and cuddling on the couch for now.

That’s awesome! But, for possessive and controlling relationships, surveillance can be harmful.
Personally, my location is shared with my sister. I’d share it with my partner but he is a bit of a Luddite. I wouldn’t be sharing because he asked, I would be doing it so he could find me easily in an emergency.
And, I wouldn’t ask him to share his. If he turned it on and wanted me to have it, that’s cool. And if not, that’s cool too.
Mine is not a pure ACD to be fair. Half ACD, half Dal. He’s a great watch dog, and he does do a little herding, but he doesn’t do the ankle bites. He also grew up in shelters. I adopted him at 2 years old so he may have habits from that time.
Ducky
Mine doesn’t do the ankle bites! But he’s always on watch and he barks a lot. -_-
This is a very good boy. I can tell. I have a knack for this kinda thing.

Travis Ward said the driver was shot after the collision, transported to the hospital and taken into surgery. For that reason, he said, police were unable to determine whether he was intoxicated.
Nah. They could have requested a warrant for a blood test while he was in the hospital if they wanted to.

I kinda get them not wanting to deal with porn when you can’t verify consent and age of the performers, but the games don’t make sense because there aren’t live performers to worry about.
Mostly that stuff annoys me on Steam because it’s always at the top when I’m sorting by trending/popular, but I don’t think it needs to be removed either.

w3dd1e@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•will i be judged or will people think i'm cool if i learn to talk "oldtimey"?15·19 days agoThe real answer is that it depends on your age. Probably also race and gender. People will react differently to each.
An older adult ready for retirement? Delightful!
A kid trying to be different and impress girls! Cringey.
I think the problem is that for a long time Tesla, and specifically Elon, went around telling everyone how great their autopilot was. Turns out that was all exaggeration and sometimes flat out lying.
They showed videos of the car driving on its own. Later, we found out it was actually being controlled remotely.
Yeah, the driver wasn’t operating the vehicle safely but, Tesla told him that he didn’t have to.
