HILLSDALE, N.Y. His bosses at the Trump country club called it side work.
On some nights, after the clubs Grille Room closed, head waiter Jose Gabriel Juarez an undocumented immigrant from Mexico was told to clock out. He pressed his index finger onto a scanner and typed his personal code, 436.
But he didnt go home.
Instead on orders from his bosses, Juarez said he would stay on, sometimes past midnight. He vacuumed carpets, polished silverware and helped get the restaurant at Trump National Golf Club Westchester in Briarcliff Manor, N.Y., ready for breakfast the next day.
All off the clock. Without being paid.
