Hi Counselor,
My Employer is based in Massachusetts and I work for them in Oregon.
When I work 12hour days two days in a week, but then get overtired from working 12hour days, my employer insists that I stay home and take PTO to finish the week. When THAT happens I lose 8 hours of OT to PTO. That is, I am told I must change my OT on Tuesday and Wednesday to Regular hours and absorb the time I took off on Friday. This results in a seriously reduced paycheck.
Are they right to force me to change my time card? Didn't I "earn" this PTO AND the OT?
