My first real job ruined me on OT, because, with approval, we got time-and-a-half.

I managed to be somewhat productive! I finished cleaning my room. But I still have my office/craft room, which looks like someone trashed it--there's stuff all over the floor and spilling out of bags and shit. Sigh.
I don't really get comp time, but if I only bill 6 hours on a Friday when I've traveled a bunch, no one blinks. It'd be harder to justify not billing any hours, though, even if I worked all day Sunday.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Salaried employees are classified as exempt, meaning they are exempt from OT. Hourly employees get OT--but if you work part time, OT does not mean more hours than your PT schedule, it means more than 40 hrs a week (this can vary from state to state).

I currently get paid OT if I work more than 8 hours in a day, but I assume that is a contractual thing with my agency.

My company is delighted to pay us overtime. It keeps them from having to hire new people.

I think there are provisions for people having to be paid overtime for working on federal holidays, aren't there? Being salaried and adamantly not working on actual holidays, I've not personally familiarized myself with the rules, but I thought that was the case...

Exempt employee here who has to work a workplace holiday that isn't company holiday. And then there is the company holiday that isn't a fed holiday. So I try to work both and get a floater.

No OT is the definition of salaried, isn't it?
Usually, but not always.

I spent ten minutes on taxes. Victory is mine!
The taxes are not even close to done, but still.

Actually, that's California state law. It differs in other states.
