LaborWire - The Joe Hill Dispatch: "Mr. Pooters quit, landing a job in 2002 managing a Family Dollar store, one of 5,100 in that discount chain. Top managers there ordered him not to let employees' total hours exceed a certain amount each week, and one day, he said, his district manager told him to use a trick to cut payroll: delete some employee hours electronically.

'I told her, `I'm not going to get involved in this,' ' Mr. Pooters recalled, saying that when he refused, the district manager erased the hours herself."
