Helo, I'm from Tn. and recently left my job of 5yrs. I worked day and night, paid my own cell phone bill that I had to have, used my home computer after hours for work I worked 7 days a week. So there is overtime every pay period. I was Salary pay $1500. Every two weeks, I left 2days before the pay period ended. I did not get my full Salary pay. It was $520.00 less. Wasn't I suppose to be paid my Salary amount?

If you left the job with two days remaining in the 2-week pay period, I would think your base pay would have been 8/10 of your $1500 salary, or $1200. OT is typically something you have to put in for - your employer doesn't normally just pay it without a time sheet or something that documents how many hours OT you worked. In most businesses OT is determined on a weekly basis - and is typically determined by the number of hours over 40 you work in a given week. So if you left the job after 3 days in that last week then you probably won't qualify for OT unloess your total hours for those three days is greater than 40. However, check with your employer and ask for a detailed accounting.

As for the cell phone - if you have unreimbursed business expenses (such as cell phone minutes used for business that your employer did not pay you for) you should ne able to deduct them from your income tax.

Thanks, I do turn in hours every end of pay period. And total should be 80hrs. Mine was always 90-98 hrs. I believe this Company is doing things that are not right, they don't even pay hourly Employees overtime. When they do work overtime. I want to know if they should pay me my whole Salary, the pay period I worked minus 2 days, I still had 81hrs.

If you are salary you do not get paid overtime, you merely get paid the same amount every week, even if you work 100 hours

Normally if you quit they will deduct the average days pay for days not worked
