I like this idea of OT for Calif workers because it would give farmers in other parts of the country more of a level playing field. Calif can produce produce (not two verbs) at an artificially low rate because of illegal labor. Am I wrong? I really want to know the facts.

In my area, east coast, the Wage Hours Board requires overtime pay for all non salary work over 8 hours a day, or 40 hours per week. Farm labor is hard physical work. I was covered by this law for sitting on my slowly spreading fanny in an office.

High irony for someone hiding in the shadows on FR.

Tell us who you are and we might be a little more willing to communicate.
