[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It also depends on your contract.
I worked with a union that had pyramid overtime - so that your regular pay was paid at overtime level IF you needed to work your schedule weekend.

Let's pretend you are scheduled 2nd shift M-F.  So you are working ~ 3PM to midnight.  On Saturday there is a problem and you go into work and if you go in on a Saturday even if it is only a 30 min issue you automatically get paid for 4 hours.  But you get paid weekend premium.  Repeat for Sunday.

Monday comes along and now you worked 7 days in a row and you did not have a weekend.  So all of your scheduled time M-F is paid as overtime.

It was incredible the amount of emergency maintenance that needed to occur on the weekends.[/quote]

That's wild. So if you really never get a weekend because you're popping in each day, the overtime pay essentially never ends.

It sounds like that's what this guy was doing. He was at work seven days per week for the last 7 years. Insane.[/quote]
