    I got bumped up to exempt status so my employer wouldn’t have to pay overtime. The feds really need to raise that salary ceiling.

    Well, you could always ask to DeMo. But your boss bumped you up to get a great deal for himself!

    “Congratulations, you’ve got the promotion! From now on, you’ll be coming in early, staying late, and working through your lunch break!”

    It is common to get a promotion and find out you are making less hourly. That is why todays current job market allows for negotiations before a promotion is accepted.
