Work not requested but suffered or permitted is work time. For
example, an employee may voluntarily continue to work at the end of the
shift. He may be a pieceworker, he may desire to finish an assigned task
or he may wish to correct errors, paste work tickets, prepare time
reports or other records. The reason is immaterial. The employer knows
or has reason to believe that he is continuing to work and the time is
working time. (Handler v. Thrasher, 191, F. 2d 120 (C.A. 10, 1951);
