And everyone thought registries were only for sex offenders. If it works to punish them then why not on those who don’t want to work?

    If it’s two hours long, yes! I expect to get paid for that time. Absolutely.

    I have never shadowed at a new job and had it be unpaid.

      new job

      For a new job, sure, you should be getting paid. This is part of the hiring process, you don’t have the job yet.

      I’ve known a lot of people who’ve gotten jobs that have had a half dozen or so rounds of interviews, how many hours does that add up to? Every other interview I’ve ever done was at least 30-45 minutes, so after 3 rounds or so of interviews at another job you’ve pretty much broken even on that.

      And with other jobs that’s often spread over multiple days or weeks that you’d probably need to take time off from your current job for. I’d gladly take this hour or two on a night or weekend over that.
