No, you don’t own my life just because I’m “salaried”. No, I don’t want to work more than 40 hours a week because I’m “salaried”. No, don’t think about contacting me during my days off because “I’m salaried”. Every hour I stay AFTER my core 40 hours should be paid overtime because my time is NOT free. The audacity for companies to expect their employees to work 40+ hours a week, and everyone acting like that’s completely sane acceptable, and constantly putting in 50+ hours blows my mind. If your company “can’t afford” to pay your employees overtime even if they’re salaried, your company is crap.
