"Altering of Worker Time Cards Spurs Growing Number of Suits" (New York Times article, free registration required):
Rosann Wilks, who was an assistant manager at a Pep Boys in Nashville, said she was fired in 2001 after refusing to delete time. She said her district manager told her, "Under no circumstances at all is overtime allowed, and if so, then you need to shave time." [...] Bill Furtkevic, Pep Boys' spokesman, said his company did not tolerate deleting time. "Pep Boys' policy dictates, and record demonstrates, that any store manager found to have shaved any amount of employee time be terminated," he said.
And so on...

I'm reading The Corporation (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0743247442/qid=1081199284/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/104-9089301-9659927?v=glance&s=books).

I haven't gotten very far yet, but it's quite interesting.
