Looking at the other comments I guess it depends on the state. I'm in my 30s and have had a few friends over the years tell me that they sued, and won, their employers for missing breaks. Needless to say all of my managers/bosses have gone out of their way to make sure I get my breaks to avoid that happening. I have even heard of situations where people just randomly get a check in the mail because somebody else sued the company and after an audit it was discovered that the company was not allowing for proper breaks. This forced all past employees to get compensated for it. California in case you're wondering.
