I get hourly/tipped pay, some days I work overtime and some days I get out early depending on how busy it is, so it balances out. I know that even if I work late at least I'm getting paid for being there, and I get holiday time and a half (tip wages so barely anything but still.)
Our salaried supervisors on the other hand are short staffed, so they work overtime almost every day, for no extra pay, work holidays for no extra pay, are asked to come in on their days off for no extra pay. What even is the point? I wouldn't be able to handle working extra knowing I wasn't even being compensated for it.
