I worked at a therapy clinic for a short span. We would use towels, and pillow cases frequently for exercises and icing/heat applications. We had just moved to a new site that did not have an in house washer or dryer, and my director had no intentions of hiring a contractor to deliver and pick up linen. We were tasked by the director with taking the linen home ourselves and washing it. Many of my coworkers just took it as part of the job, but I did not agree. We were hourly workers and that was blatantly a work related activity. When it was my turn to take the linen home, I clocked in on my phone prior to starting the washer, and clocked out only after I had taken out AND folded all of the linen.
A week later my manager sends me a text questioning my extra time, and I simply replied with I was on the clock washing the linen. It was not long after that we had a new contractor coming by the office weekly to pick up and deliver fresh linen.
