[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A middle schooler can be dropped off somewhere in walking distance, and get themselves to school.  No need to pay for before care.[/quote]

Where did I say I had a middle schooler?  It’s a kinder![/quote]

So, you want the company to pay for you to "work" but you will be fixing breakfast and getting your 5 year old on a bus?

Yeah, you'd be so fired if you work for me.[/quote]

I’m salaried. I don’t work hourly. My core hours are 10-3.

You are a peach. [/quote]

While I agree with you OP most higher ups and supervisors view salaried as minimum 40 hours with no max number of hours but you have to use leave for anything outside of expected hours, which is dumb because thats how hourly is set up, but I digress.
 Ex. they expect you to stay and work through evenings on their whims but you cant come in at 10 after a doctors appointment and work late without using leave from X-10. 
 Corporations have been manipulating exempt workers and the regulations around them for decades now.

Also the rules surrounding this are:
"To qualify for most white-collar exemptions, employees must earn at least $684 per week or $35,568 per year. Employees who earn at least $107,432 per year are also exempt, regardless of their job duties, unless they perform manual labor or are covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

So most DCUM is exempt because of the HCOL and wages which is why you see such awful labor practices in this area. [/quote]
