If you get paid less than $455 per week you can not be considered salaried and should get paid overtime. even if your employer considers you in one of these exempted groups : movie theater employees, live-in domestic employees, farmworkers on small farms, railroad employees (you're covered by the Railway Labor Act) and truck drivers. This is all according to the Fair Labor Standards Act.
