Is it illegal for my company to not pay overtime until after 55 hours? I work on trailers and i do not have a cdl or any kind of endorsements so why is my company paying me like a driver? I feel like I’m being robbed lowkey and i had an interview for another job and even they said it was illegal. My manager has said people tried to sue or whatever in the past and they never won so would it be worth it? Maybe my boss is just saying that so i don’t seek legal action? Based in texas
Dude is pathetic for real.
New post because my previous was deleted. I was scrolling through indeed and saw this beautiful gem. its wild to think there are actuall human beings who think someone would take this job offer.

I have only worked here for a year and a half now. We have two locations in two different states and I work in office at our HQ with the helpdesk team's manager as a team of two onsite. At our other site we have another team of two including my co-worker that's been here for 10 years and a new girl we hired a few months ago to help him out there. At our primary HQ site where I work we have on average 10-15 people on a typical workday Monday-Friday and this generally takes up about 10-25% of my daily bandwidth to support them when my manager is wfh and I'm the…
Why is your company or industry not striking alongside the actors and writers? Which industries do you think would be possible to convince to join that strike? (And watch them come to a deal almost immediately after I post)
Nobody really wants to work. Working sucks. But most of us need a job to pay the bills, and if I'm going to work I want to be as relaxed as I can while I'm doing it. Personally I think the best way is for everyone to be efficient. No one works too hard, but everyone gets their shit done so nothing piles up and no one is stressed out by having to pick up any slack. We just hired a new person into our office to fill a role that's been open for a couple months. The role being empty has caused some stress for people in our office, as it's a lot of extra work to take on, on top of the normal workload. This new person needs to be trained until they will really be useful. But they are not making a good first impression. They showed…
