If you're salaried, non-exempt, you don't get paid for extra time. My salary at a firmer job was based on a "full-time" schedule of 40 hours/week. Most of us usually worked more than that, and during busy times--for example, the summer months when I ran a camp--I'd work 60-70 hours a week. You just work till the job is done. [/quote]

Well that's kind of stupid ... If I'm not accruing extra PTO, nor getting paid for the hours, or working more or less than 37.5 hrs/week I'm basically providing x number of days in free labor?[/quote]
Yep, that's what it means to be a salaried employee. The business assumes that the job will take x number of hours. If it takes x+y, that's just the way it goes. But sometimes, you might be able to swap the time you stay late for leaving early on another day--at my previous office, we called that "CoMo time" rather than "time off."

And sometimes, that's just the way it crumbles. [/quote]
