I am supposedly a salaried employee, but we have to charge our time to the relevant customer. So we have to log our hours, and can’t really close our time card with less than 40 hours. And it’s not like they give us a generic charge # for when there’s down time. We get lots of training on when we are or are not allowed to charge the customer (some of our customers are military, though I work commercial accounts.) We dub it “sourly” (portmanteau of hourly and salary).
Are there any jobs where you really just perform your function and don’t have to track time like this?
Is this configuration legal? If so, are there any realistic recourses?
