This is wild to me. I'm on salary. But paid by the minute. We almost never work our full 152 hours per 4 week cycle, usually 130-140 hours. We do anywhere from 4-11 hour shifts. We are rostered for service calls, if any adjustments are made to our shift, the entire shift will be paid overtime @ 1.7 (and not counted towards monthly cycle) if we go over our 152 hours we are paid overtime rate by the minute. And if we reach 11 hours on a shift we are not allowed to do any work or drive any vehicles, we have to call a taxi or get another crew to take us home.

    Excuse me, but "full time" is 120 hours in 4 weeks. What's this 130-140 bullshit, let alone 152?

    You're getting screwed even in what you intended to be an example of a better workplace!

    Edit: I can't math gud.

    yeah we were on salary and if you went over 40 in a week then you went over. I ended up leaving for a job that pays about 15% more, has unlimited PTO, full WFH when this job was hybrid and I haven't put in more than about 35 hours in a week since then
