I feel there is something missing in this story… what was implied by your email about cancelling your flight home the agreement to only log 40 hours? Sounds like you were just saying “affirmative”… what is the stunt he thinks you were pulling? And what is the second email about which you mention gmail and taking him off.

It was a great story until that point and I want to know what happened next, I feel I’m missing something.



He was creating a paper trail for illegal working/billing practices.


Only working 40 hours is different from only logging 40 hours, this is the important part:

> they would put pressure on their workers to work overtime but not log the hours.

The email was to get in writing that his boss told him to lie about how many hours he worked.


The stunt is creating a paper trail.
