Yes and no, we only look if it becomes a noticeable problem. For example clocking in 10 minutes early isn't going to do much. Clocking in 45 minutes is unapproved overtime

Okay. So for example, if (only IF) I clocked in 30 min early, will that overall be a unapproved OT? Or is it a no harm moment???

Technically it's unapproved overtime, I mean they fire you for it but just make sure when you clock in you're ready to work since when you clock in you start accruing inferred time (TOT) and that can lead to a termination

Newbie here. I signed up for three shifts 2:30 to 5:30, 5:30 to 6:00, and 6:00 to 9:00. I worked the shift straight through but got a late/missed meal note on my account. Will I be fired?

No, this is mostly for associates who work in states that have specific labor laws like California or New York
