I work 47.5 hours a week, I havent been receiving overtime do i qualify for overtime?

Most employers (More than $500k in Gross Revenue and Dealing in Interstate Commerce) are covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act, which requires employers to pay 1.5 times the employee's hourly rate for all hours worked in excess of 40 in a given week.  This applies to all workers who are not exempt (mangers, owners, professionals and a bunch of others) If you are the only employee being treated in this fashion, you might consider filing a complaint with the US Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division.  There is an office in each major city in Texas. (Arlington for Dallas and Fort Worth).  They do a pretty decent job of collecting unpaid overtime. If there are many employees who are being treated similarly to you (More than 10 or so) you might also consider contacting a local attorney experienced in overtime pay matters (the law is kind of complicated, so this is not the kind of case you take to one of the TV car wreck lawyers) Good luck.
