My store is in Anaheim and the manager told me to go to help out a store in Oceanside. Someone from another store came and picked me up and took me to Oceanside and back. It's about an hour drive to there and another hour back so it's 2 hours travel time. My question is that at the store i worked 9 hours with an hour lunch so 8 hours paid, but do i get 2 hours overtime since the travel time is 2 hours. I'm pretty confused on this so i figured i'd ask here.

Travel time between job sites is compensable. It makes no difference that you did not drive yourself.
