Am by law obligated to attend a work meeting?

I received this email from my management about a scheduled team meeting.

The issue is that the meeting is scheduled to end one hour after my shift finishes, and the company doesn't pay overtime.

The main thing they've asked everyone to prepare is three ways we think the business can become more profitable or efficient, along with any questions, concerns, or feedback.

Here's the email:

>

Am I being unreasonable for expecting to either be paid for the extra hour or be allowed to leave when my shift ends? If a meeting extends beyond scheduled working hours, should that time be paid or am I able to leave when my shift ends?

I'm also curious what others think about being asked to come up with ideas to improve the company's profitability during unpaid time. Has anyone dealt with something similar?

Data/Bi & Business Analysts Of SA?

I am currently in my final year of BCom studies. I took Business Intelligence and Project management as my electives. I have managed to pass so far by cramming all the theory but with my final exams upcoming I have come to a very dire realization. What do I do with no SQL, basic Excel knowledge and when i pass a piece of paper that doesn't mean much other than the ink printed on it.

I have tried learning SQL but I have F*ol clue what I am really learning nor how to approach learning Excel to a intermediate level.

I have great data sets to work with at my current job but unsure what to actually do with them.

Finally my question. Is there any Analysts willing to share some of their time(via Teams/Discord/etc.) to help me understand the actual field of Business/BI/Data analytics.
