Doesnt make sense from the owners P.O.V to pay me 8hrs + 4hrs over time. when he can just hire some one part-time for the over time?
Thats like me asking my Boss, "Hey im done my 8hrs, im gonna stick around and work another 4 so u have to pay me 1.5xhrs ok?"

I hear what you are saying, but this kind of attitude will make us become more like 3rd world countries. This owner is knowingly breaking labour laws so he doesn't have to pay higher wages. Plus the owner is doing something illegal to create a competitive advantage over his competitors (well except for Chinese and asian places). These laws take decades to form to protect workers rights and actions like these are undermining these laws.
I for one don't want us to be like other countries where we work 12 hours a day, have little workers rights or have the mentality where I have to arrive before my boss and leave after my boss. However I know there are many on this forum that are from a culture where this is prominent.
