i ain't going in on my day off unless you're paying me overtime.

 

[ChrosisOria]

one of the worst feeling ever is when you're enjoying something then suddenly being aware of your responsibilities

 

[juviegar]

On weekend or vacation, I always put my work phone in silent mode.

relatable

i ain't going in on my day off unless you're paying me overtime.

And then your shitty boss tells you:

"You come in when I tell you or you ain't returning for work at all next week" 😭

I'd get another job I'm not their slave

In my country that's an easy way to get put on the manager's "Expendables" list.

I learned this the hard way back in college.

Not as easy when you have a kid and bills.

And you live in a shitty country with outdated work culture.

Man, that's really fucking relatable.

I mean, if you've already working full time, they're kinda gonna have to (depending on the country, obviously).

I mean in the US it depends on the state Pennsylvania doesn't pay you overtime even if you work 7 days a week in Louisiana you get overtime/time and a half just from working an extra day plus you get holiday pay

Thanks to the idiot baby boomers for that

I mean, a lot of states won't give you OT if you work 7 days a week as long as you're under 40 hours.

Also, you're incorrect about Louisiana. Louisiana has no state overtime laws, so it defaults back to the Federal law. And the example you've given is not Federal law.

My dad worked 60-70 hours in Pennsylvania and never got over time pay in Louisiana he works 12 hour shift 5 days a week and gets overtime pay even on the week he works 2 days if he works an extra day I'm only going off of personal experience

Edit: my dad is a yard jockey by the way

If your father was salaried, then he might not have gotten overtime because salaried positions are considered exempt if they make more than the Federal salary threshold. Otherwise, his employer was breaking the law and your father just never called them out on it; should have, though, because wage theft punishable by law.

12 hour shifts x 5 days a week = 60 hours, which means 20 hours would be eligible for overtime. As for getting overtime after 2 days, that's just either the employer being nice or it's the contract they negotiated, because they're not legally required to do so.

my dad was/is hourly and the company was in violation of trucking laws but with all federal laws they'd also punish my dad if he reported them plus with the astronomical cost of living in PA my dad needed to do that to pay bills even with my brother working a warehouse job(which is like the highest paid non licensed job you can get) for 50 hours a week and me working in a restaurant 40 hours a week we couldn't afford the cost of living there my point about the overtime in LA was when my dad has to work an extra 6th day he get's overtime in PA he didn't
