it's going back to trump's threshold too. if you were enjoying OT with a 37K salary, congratulations, you're exempt now
Imagine being a salaried employee and only earning $16.80 per hour, assuming 40 hours a week. I wonder what type of work this even covers as that's slightly above minimum wage here, and it requires you to work all those extra hours for free.
about the whole "a work week is 40 hours" thing too...
If you're working 60 hours a week like a lot of the salaried people I work with, that brings your hourly pay down to $11.80. I just can't imagine why someone would take a job like that when there are so many hourly entry level jobs that pay more than that.
people take shit jobs with shit pay because they don't have any other options
so many hourly entry level jobs that pay more than that
not for much longer would be my guess
