   No such thing as that in security.  Its over time after 40 hours and
that's it.

  I had a captain one time who liked to jerk people around.  He would have
someone on one post one day, the next day another, the third day a third
post, etc.
  Each post had its own time sheet.  At the end of the week they were all
collected, time added up, etc.
  He often would "lose" a time sheet.  When the employee inquired about the
missing pay he would claim they never worked that post and not getting paid. 
Caused a lot of hard feelings and also cost the company a lot of employees.
  I was in parking at the time and never happened to me, we had copies of
our time sheets, signed off by someone in authority.  The head of parking,
and if she wasn't around the chief of police.  If  he wasn't around it went on
down the chain of command.  Onc
   Carolyn, my civilian boss, wanted a copy for her files and we had a copy
to CYA.
