    My company is going to move me to hourly and tip me at the end of the year based on our financial performance.

    1.5 is the minimum OT rate. My OT rate can be 50* my hourly minimum wage. Thanks Trump!

    Why would it have to back-end? Time and a half is just the minimum federal requirement for OT. I can set my OT up to be 50 times my hourly rate if I want.

    I'll work 40 hours a week at minimun wage and 4 more hours at like $800 an hour, or whatever the math is.

    Yep. I thought that was an opportunity missed. I expected the question and she should have said something to the effect that while i dont disagree with his big policy ideas (list a few), i would have liked to emphasize some of these other ideas we weren’t able to get to such as ……

    https://www.wsj.com/finance/how-the-trump-whale-correctly-called-the-election-cb7eef1d

    Fascinating article.

    The French guy that bet $30 million on Trump winning the electoral college, popular vote, and blue wall states theorized that polls were undercounting Trump voters again due to the “shy Trump voter effect” where they are more likely to either refuse to participate in polls or not tell pollsters they support Trump. To test his theory, before making the bet he commissioned his own poll that, instead of asking who the person planned to vote for, asked them who they thought their neighbor was voting for, which showed much higher Trump support than the public polls did.

    When all of the vote counting FINALLY gets done out west, I think Trump will have won the popular vote by +-3.5 million.

    Yes, he has exceeded his 2020 total. Trump will also stay north of 50.0% of the nationwide popular vote.

    Notice the bias. Most of the polls have a strong Democrat bias and exist to depress Republican fundraising

    The most accurate pollster of 2024 (some say) will expose the fraud known as "538"
