This means nothing to me. Other than I will be earning even less because I'll be unaffected. It's bad enough that grocery store workers now earn more than I do due to our union contract, but I keep getting left further and further behind b/c these bills are non-applicable to my industry.

There are some rules, but Salaried don't exactly have limits on hours they work Most work 55 hours but if they happen to be a manager, they could work more when filling in

Contracts don't override Federal or state law. Which is very clear about the requirements for being considered exempt.

Salaried does not necessarily mean exempt from overtime rules.

So far he's only been suspended...and of course there won't be any repercussions because his family is rich as fuck. If you don't know, his dad is the GM of the Flyers....

Set full time at 32 hours and anything over that is overtime.

You are getting paid less than if you worked 48 hours.

>In PA, nonparticipating insurances send the checks to the patient not the provider.
I live in PA and this is absolute bullshit. I have always received bills from my provider telling me how much I owe them that insurance does not pay.

>We're the leeches???
Yes. Medical debt happens either because the system is broken and those who need help can't afford it, unlike every other civilized country, or because someone forgot to pay a small bill they can easily afford and the hospital shunts it off to some sleazebag collection outfit instead of sending a second notice.
You're an IT professional. Have some self-respect and go work at a real company that provides a net good to society instead of being a bootlicker of the evil industry you work in.

That’s cool and all if a business wants to offer that, but what do these politicians have to do with that? Are they doing it for their businesses? Or forcing it onto companies/employees?

Who the fuck is this for? Are you saying that we should get paid for one less day per week?

Had a guy running for a local school board seat. Made it very obvious that under "his opponents rule" (to quote) too many unholy abominations, such as gay people in public, were being displayed!
Aka, we must protect the children by getting rid of half the children :skull:

It's being accomplished in other parts of the country and other countries. Meeting every new idea with pessimistic cynicism is a good way to be a self fulfilling prophecy. At one point in America, people made your comment in regards to having a 2 day weekend.

Yeah until you miss a dramatic amount of stuff because of the 12s. Sounds nice, but it's not really.

I'm aware. I'm salaried and work 40-ish hours per week, but have worked more when needed.
Honestly, if your typical work week as a salaried employee is 55 hours, either your employer needs to hire more people, or you suck at time management.
