No! Just tell them you were forgetful and get a job where you are on a salary!

Depends on the company. Especially if they they have a clock out policy. It shows that either you dont pay attention to what you're doing, or just don't care. Some companies sees this as (Riding the Clock ). Meaning they have to go in and fix the time to pay you correctly.

Yes, they might think your trying to earn more. By not pouching out they won't know many hours you work . Or what hours should they pay you for. It might make them rethink of hiring you. Try to come up with a reasonable excuse why you didn't puch out.

It also depends on rather you will put your last job on your resume. Or want to use them as a refrence. If not how could they really findout.

Of course not. It sounds like you were terminated unjustly.
