minus-squareFlying Squid@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 year agoI do not. My job sucks and I deserve higher pay.
minus-squarejanNatan@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-21 year agoI believe that if you make below that threshold as a salaried employee and do not receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 per week, then your employer may be violating a rule. Wage theft is the largest category of theft in the USA.

Do you make more than $35,568?

Like I said, the job sucks.
