Are you getting more money, at least? You know, factoring in overtime if you were still hourly.

just because you're on salary doesn't mean that they can't pay overtime. It depends on if you actually have staph. In other words you need to have a certain number of people directly reporting to you. If you don't you still get overtime check the laws in your state. They're not hard to find.

Quit immediately.

That sounds like some topic tier abusive bullshit. Possibly illegal too.

I don't see what it matters if he has a staph infection.

I make the same, assuming 2.5 hours of overtime a week. It's not yet known if I'll be called upon to work more than that.

It's never a one time thing.

Exactly. You set a precedent.

Work 40 and not a minute more unless you're guaranteed overtime. If they have a problem with it start looking for work elsewhere.

Depends how you use the opportunity. Advance the company and they will advance your pay. Just do the same shit and you'll be stuck in the same spot.

Well it depends on the type of work you're doing. But apparently they must like what you're doing if they want more of your work.

Yup. It depends on the company. Once they get a hard worker (doormat) they'll slowly lay off their coworkers and carefully see how many people's worth of work they can do, because having fewer workers is cheaper than having more. It happens a lot.
