Why is the government meddling in the affairs of private businesses? Workers know their pay structure when hired. If they don't like it they can go work somewhere else.

THANKS OBAMA! Can't wait to start firing employees to offset the cost increases


Or you can stop fricking over your employees and not make them work over 40 hours.

Oh yeah, adults making 47k working 50 hours a week is practically indentured servitude, right?

It's stupid and unneeded social engineering which will do nothing to help the economy.


i think its aimed at stopping employees from being taken advantage of.

This rule has been in place for a long time, thye just raised the threshold (from what i understand)

My salary is based on a 40 hour work week. If I want to pull my laptop at home and do work then thats my choice. This Act doesnt apply to me, but I dont see the issue with paying people if they have to work over the 40.

give raises to those making around $44k to over the $47k threshold and give them more work.
I manage a few people in this category and I'll be bumping them up

You are owning the naysayers about as well as Cam Newton owned the Denver defense in the super bowl.
