It's even worse at the photography co. where my housemate works.  He often works Friday or Saturday evenings, and I know that sometimes his hours have to go over 40 in a week, yet he never gets paid overtime.  He also does not take a lunch break, even though I frequently remind him that by LAW they have to give him at LEAST a 1/2 hour break every day when he works 8 hours.  He used to spend his "breaks" moving his car because there was no place to park except for on the street, where you could only park for 2 hours without getting a (strictly-enforced) ticket!  I think it should be the company's lookout to make sure its employees have adequate parking. (Recently, one of the bosses moved to a place two blocks away, so now they can park there.)  Overall, I think he's being given the shaft, and we're on the lookout for a better job for him!
