DO most employers want to get this right? Based on the fact that wage theft is the largest form of theft even with everything else combined, I think that's either a lie or a stupid thing to say.

Also, I just don't understand under what circumstances anyone should be exempt from overtime. Is there some group of people who are less deserving of getting paid for their time that I am unaware of? Even (shudder) managers should probably get paid.

I believe this does not work for Home. You can bypass it in Pro like this though. Unless something has changed I am not aware of.

I used to like that game and was sad when I went back to play and found I couldn't

I'm sorry, but I think I disagree. I interpreted your point as "Employers care, you just have to hold them accountable". I don't think that is the attitude of companies who want to do things the right way. If workers have more rights than they know, and employers are aware of it, then I do not think that's an mistake, that's exploitation.

Red Sister by Mark Lawrence. A series described inaccurately, but amusingly, as about "lesbian murder nuns".

"It is important, when killing a nun, to ensure that you bring an army of sufficient size. For Sister Thorn of the Sweet Mercy Convent Lano Tacsis brought two hundred men."

"No child truly believes they will be hanged. Even on the gallows platform with the rope scratching at their wrists and the shadow of the noose upon their face they know that someone will step forward, a mother, a father returned from some long absence, a king dispensing justice … someone. Few children have lived long enough to understand the world into which they were born. Perhaps few adults have either, but they at least have learned some bitter lessons."

I actually agree, I own my computer / OS and I should be able to do what you're saying (install and break things). But Microsoft is a trillion dollar multi national corporation and I am certainly going to give them grief about this because I owe them less than nothing, let alone any good will.
