I am a front office manager at a hotel, paid hourly. The general manager stated today that I am on call 24/7, after I punch out from my regular shift, and I will not be paid for it. There is no job description in place. Is this legal in Texas?
Answer
Working without being paid is called "slavery" and it was abolished by the 13th Amendment.
When somebody tells you that you're on call 24/7, simply say, "No, I'm not. I will have my phone turned off." As Nancy Reagan said, "Just say no."
