Question
1. I worked overtime at the kindergarten, for which I was not paid. I missed one day. The kindergarten teacher told me to offset the hours, and I did so. Is this okay? (After all, she is not responsible for the payment. The payslip states that overtime hours beyond the weekly standard that were not pre-approved are not authorized for execution and payment.) She does the same. Should I return the money, contact the offices? Or is it okay?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
Since the management told you to work overtime, you can offset.
