Is it to late to save the 40 hour week


When my employer went to 12 hour days I did not know they could make us work 48 hours in 4 days and not pay over time.

7K exemption form the traditional 40 hour work week.

It takes me two days to recover from working 48 hours in 4 days. I actually get more accomplished on my 3 day weekend then my 4 day weekend.

Well you asked for a rant.

Lotto, you seriously need to give the federal labor board a call and describe this situation to them. I really think that might be in violation of some labor laws. I could be wrong - I'm not an expert or anything - but it's definitely worth finding out for sure.
