But that 20 mins is part of the 6 hours, so you should only "work" for
5h40m at a stretch. ISTR that the clock starts at your personal start
time as well, yes personal times can be different to those that the
employer thinks they are asking.

I must admit that the =A33/hr minimum wage for 16/17 year olds strikes
me as very low. I bet many 16/17 year olds are doing the same work as
"adults"... And the differing break structure must be a nightmare for
anyone employing youngsters spaning the 17/18 age break point.
