After recent events in germany, for all those that didn`t hear it a german police man worked out it took him half an hour a day to put on and take off uniform he said he should be paid for this time the german courts agreed and gave him an extra seven days holiday a year in lew of payment,So that said does this now mean that if you are working or traveling to your first job you should be paid. This will probably not alter things in the USA and CANADA but if the german courts passed it you can bet europe will adopt it very soon.
Whats your opinion, I believe if you are working you should be earning.
Just a foot note if you are not working, i.e not being paid,are you insured to drive on company insurance?
