No more time cards!

I go in and say "Hi!" to Maggiepie (but I call her her name...

We had this biometric system since 2007 in our department's regional office. We just have to put on our forefinger on the scanner and we're in. But on field offices we just use a log book and time cards.

most of the work i have been to, i have never experienced actually logging in with a time card. most have moved to the swiping of card and this would enable the HR to capture the details, including the time of my arrival at work. this is really very accurate, of course except when the receiver is down- which is a bit rare, if you ask me... with this, we are then allowed to manually input our time in.... But this is really great, too because you would not have to worry to get to the place where the time card machine is located to "log in". =)

I know the places I worked at I had to use a time card to clock in and out. Where Randuy worked at he had write his hours on a time sheet, but the problem with that is that his boss would cross out hours and cheat Randy out of pay. Before Randy turned it in we would make a copy of it and then if we had issues (which we did constantly) we would report it to the department of Labor. This had happened several times until he was let go in September. we had found out that a time sheet is a binding contract and therefore nobody was able to change things on it.

I've been with companies that use different time keeping systems/machines. Two of my previous employers use chronolog for time tracking, the other one use biometrics. I can use my fingers/thumb mark for logging in and out. To my surprise, my current employer still use time cards and bundy clock. But recently, they told us that they have already ordered a more advanced time keeping machine and will soon replaced time cards.

There are some many modern ways now in timing in at work.There are some who uses the same way that you used,some uses fingerprints and others are just swiping their ids.Here at work we are still using time card to be punched into bundy clock.No plans of changing it so far.

I used to "tag" a card to enter the office, and also leave the office. Besides tracking the time we are in and out of the office, it's the security access card to enter and leave the office too. Without the card, we can't leave or enter through a door. The system also has a "anti-passback" feature, if we forget to "tag out" from the office, and we are trying to "tag in" to the office, the system will not allow us to do so. So, we have to always remember to tag in and out. Now, I am a full-time mother, hence no more time tracking except when I am doing my freelance projects. I still log my time spent on work with a time tracking system.

i work at a small not for profit and at any given time there are only about 12 of us there so the boss knows if we have been there or not. plus, at 8:30, we do staff devotions, so it is pretty noticeable if someone isn't there.

How cool! Sounds like a step in the right direction. My job's in the dark ages. LOL It doesn't use a computer or even time cards. I just write down my hours. When it's time to get paid I turn it into my boss. Happy mylotting!

I've clocked in in many different ways throughout my carreer life. One job I had we had to use a time card that we "punched". Other's it's been a card much like a debit card that we "punched" but we also signed in so that our superiors knew we were there. I've used a register to clock in, I've used my finger print, and my SS number to sign into work. I've also just wrote down my times in a log, no clock in machine at all.

Well i work for a construction company. I am the one in charge of keeping time but its hard because the guys arent in the office and they are responsible of checking in with me and when they leave for the day and come back here they are to check out with me and also write out a daily time sheet of what they did for the day. So thats they way i keep time around here The last place i worked for though i had to check in on the computer and check out on the computer as well. I also had to do this when taking lunch and going to the bathroom everyday it gets kind of annoying but if you arent signed in you cant do any work at all so it is there to always remind you to sign it at least so you will get paid.

we scan the card then scan our fingerprints to clock in and clock out.. :)

I just have to make sure I let them know That I attended the place , I mean I just have to sign for it and enter my status . It would sure be nice to use some other more advanced way like you know in those si-fi movies with retinal scanners and DNA testing that probably sill happens for more important and exclusive people .

The job that I have requires us to log into our phones because i work in a call center. The only thing I dont understand about it, is if we have to sign into our phones, why do we still have to key our time in on the computer also. should they be able to pull a report or something, but they can pull it if your late!

I have 2 jobs & 1 of them, I'm on a salary so I don't really "clock" in or out... I work as a part time translator & I get paid per job basis... Although I do have an office for translator job, I'm rarely there...
