Legal Question in Employment Law in California
My boss accidentally scheduled me for 8 days in a row. (At my job you're only allowed 5 hours a day 6 days in a row) On the eighth day I showed up to work and she said you can't stay because you already have one day overtime. I was fine with it but am I entitled to any compensation for the time and gas I wasted on my boss' mistake?

You are entitled to reporting-time pay, which is half your scheduled hours, but no more than 4 hours and no less than a minimum of 2 hours of your pay.
