Overtime out my ears at WebMedX (sm)

I get 9 cents a line and there's a tiered incentive plan.  It's something like 150-160 lph they add 0.5, 160-170 lph they add 0.75.  The top is 300 lph, where they add 2 cpl.  I've consistently earned the top incentive pay, making great money.

I was a little worried the work would get low when I saw all the ads lately, but maybe the ads are because they got new accounts.  It gets maybe a teensy bit light around the holidays (like 5 minutes without work).  I have tons of backup accounts and almost every day I have the opportunity for overtime.

I'm a FT employee with benefits.  I'd rather have someone else take care of finding accounts, setting up benefits, etc.  Couldn't be happier, really.

Years ago when I worked for an insurance claims adjuster we spent 6 of our 8 hours a day typing reports.  We loved it.  We called it putting our ears on and didn't have to worry abou the rest of it, and more importantly had an excuse to ignore the moody boss.

I personally have always just typed fast.  I've been clocked at 120 wpm.  I got faster sometime in 2006 when I started communicating on message boards on a regular basis.    

Some days, though, no matter what you do, your fingers will not cooperate.  And on the days the fingers cooperate, then the brain doesn't engage.  And on the days where both are working in harmony, then the keyboard doesn't work. 

It's a conspiracy. 

Is it anything over 39 hours?  Or if you are PT is it anything over what you have committed to work (ie 16 hours a week?). 

    That's the last time I bust my butt for nothing but chump change!  I could make more standing on a street corner with a cardboard sign...........

I was thinking of applying with them mainly because of that.  Like the person asked below has the overtime policy changed or are they just caught up?

Could be that they got into trouble for not paying overtime in the past, had slacked off on watching for that, there isn't enough work to go around (ya got that right), etc. and they should get in trouble for not paying overtime cuz it is not legal. 

There is an 'opt-in' federal labor law case in the Texas courts naming a midwestern MT company as the defendant for nonpayment of OT and IC/employee status violation.  If you Google full company names, the case will come up in the results. 

Opt-in means that if someone wants to join the law suit they need to contact the defendant's lawyer or the courts.  This information is public and easy to find.  I paid only $0.64 online to get the legal papers filed with all of the contact information.

3 people have just last week reported a large national company for requesting people to work without recording hours in order to avoid overtime. They have moved on to better things but had all documentation they needed.  They were told this is a serious offense.  Note if your company asks you to work without recording hours or that overtime is not approved it is against the law and you can take legal action. This is true for any company.
