The Quiet Shift in Overtime More problematical is the possibility that more workers — millions, according to pro-labor analysts — could be forced into unpaid overtime under the regulations, which do not affect blue-collar or union-contract workers. Managerial definitions would be relaxed to deny overtime to more white-collar professionals earning over $65,000 a year. I find this a bit bittersweet as many of my friends who formerly worked in sweet paying telecom jobs now come around unemployed and I have to resist the urge to tell them "told you so". Their jobs were being undermined at the same time they were laughing at the anti-globalization protestors who were actually trying to help them. Once the hounddogs have dug up the working/blue collar stiffs and wrung them out to dry did you honestly think they wouldn't sniff your bloated paychecks a mile away and not think "fresh meat". | |
