They should have given us word problems like this in school instead of asking about the speed of some stupid trains! OMG.

"Miss Robyn,

Need some help here.

Question:
If one guy works a full 4 days then 1 short scheduled day and then comes in 2 extra days, I take the first part of his Sat to cover his 40 hr.s right? All the rest is overtime.

Miss P doesn’t understand why I took some of his Weekend hours away to cover his 40 hr week when two of us didn’t work a full 40 hrs and still got overtime (cause our’s was from a 8 + hr. day.)
Can you help me to explain this scenario, please?
Thanks
L"

My brain hurts.
