A federal judge in Texas is blocking a rule enacted by President Joe Biden earlier this year that provides overtime pay protection for roughly four million American workers.
Imagine being a salaried employee and only earning $16.80 per hour, assuming 40 hours a week. I wonder what type of work this even covers as that’s slightly above minimum wage here, and it requires you to work all those extra hours for free.
If you’re working 60 hours a week like a lot of the salaried people I work with, that brings your hourly pay down to $11.80. I just can’t imagine why someone would take a job like that when there are so many hourly entry level jobs that pay more than that.
