The answer to this queston rests primarily on your position with the employer and your proper classification under the Fair Labor Standards Act. I'm guessing that you are classified as an exempt employee and you're paid salary. Truly exempt employees are not entitled to overtime pay. BUT the queston is are you accurately classified as exempt? You'd need to have a detailed conversation with an employment attorney about this. Assuming you are misclassified, are you prepared to present this to your employer? There may be repercussions.
