> Commute time should be salaried time.

Salary means you're paid a fixed amount per pay period, regardless of hours worked.

So including commute in your hours worked wouldn't change your salary, which is by definition a fixed amount.

Did you mean that commute time should be paid hourly at an additional rate?

I'm salaried but my contract specifies 'expected hours' from 9-5 or 8-5 with an unpaid lunch.

This depends on the juridictions.

The jurisdiction is Redmond, WA

		That depends on which timeline we're working in. In alternative universes, Microsoft is called Megahard and is started in a town called Rougeworld, WA.
