I work at a small restaurant in my hometown. I was asked by the manager to work on Valentines Day as a hostess from 10:00am-2:30pm, and then come back as a server from 4:00pm-closing. I agreed and everything went fine. However, in my past experience with working overtime for the company, I have never received overtime pay on my paycheck until I have to go to the management with my pay stub and show them that it was not given to me (this has happened on at least a dozen occasions). This is also not only something that happens to me, every other employee who has worked overtime has experienced this, and most feel that they cannot say anything or they will be terminated on the spot. So this time to avoid hassle, I left my manger a note that read:"Managers Name-- Just a reminder, I worked overtime from 7:30-11:30 on Valentines Day. Thank you, My Name"Well, apparently this upset my manager quite a bit and he complained to the chef (who--this is where my situation gets sticky--is my future father-in-law) and told him that he needs to talk to me about overtime. And he did. Chef told me that I am considered family now and I should not ask for overtime pay because it was only a few hours and doesnt matter anyway, plus there are plenty of other employees who would have been glad to work and not take the overtime and in this business one shouldnt expect overtime compensation. I explained to him that its not the money, but more the principle of the matter (of getting paid for the hours that you work), that I have been in the restaurant business for seven years and have always received overtime pay from every other establishment Ive worked for, and legally in California, you cannot refuse overtime pay and the employer has to pay you.Now there is a problem between my future father-in-law and myself AND between my manager and myself, what do I do? Was I out of line?
