That spreadsheet my boss made for tracking our hours has a formula error that's been underpaying 4 of us by about $150 a month since February.
Caught it yesterday when I added up my pay stubs against my handwritten log, and now I'm wondering if I should go to HR or just confront him directly because he's the kind of guy who takes stuff like this personally.

Honestly, would you even trust HR to handle this right if you went to them first? I get that going straight to your boss could backfire if he takes it personally, but HR's job is to protect the company, not you. They might just "investigate" and end up making things worse for everyone involved, like having you all sign something that says you agree to the corrected hours going forward and nothing else. If you do go to your boss, I'd bring your handwritten log and the spreadsheet side by side so he can't argue it's a misunderstanding. Just be super calm and say you want to help fix it before anyone else notices, not like you're accusing him of anything. Tbh, the most important thing is you have proof, because that $150 a month adds up to almost a grand by now per person.

Wait, did your boss actually try to pull that "corrected hours" BS after you showed him the log? Something similar happened to my buddy at a warehouse job, they "found" a policy nobody had ever seen before.
garcia.casey's point about the proof is solid. That $150 a month adds up. I'd keep copies of everything offsite too.
