Exempt from overtime = managers.
Or anyone they say is exempt. I manage noone and I don't get overtime.
I am eating a delicious apple though.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Trust my rage
Even though I can post on the road, I still feel so out of touch with everyone. It's nice to be able to say hi. OK, off to check my flist.

I'm a non-manager exempt as well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Exempt from overtime = managers.
Non-exempt from overtime = peons (who get overtime).
I've only once been a manager, always been exempt. That seems like an artifact of a previous definition, and no longer generally applicable, at least in my employment areas.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Thanks! I always mix it up.
I'd get three weeks vacation, bumping to four after two years. After twenty years it goes to five. duuude.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I've only once been a manager, always been exempt.
That's because you're a computer person. Employers get to treat them "special". Managers are just one category of people generally considered exempt.

Also, Hi, Stephanie and Family! Yay for being almost home!
I'm at work now. Yay!

ION, I sent an e-mail to the director of the Center I work at asking for some help with Operational Definitions for my independent study project. Apparently, EVERYONE in the Center knows I sent that e-mail, and I'm a little embarrassed. He doesn't check his own e-mail, and yada yada yada.

My understanding is that "exempt" is short for "exempt from overtime." There's nothing in the definition of the term that indicates why this would be so (i.e. "because one is a manager.")
Managerialness is sufficient for exemptness, but not necessary.
