Before you file suit on your own I suggest that you consult with a representative with your local department of lavbor and/or a labor law attorney about your situation so as to go over the factual basis of an alleged labor claim that you have written about. If you work more than eight (8) hours per day and forty (40) per week you are entitled to overtime pay.
