I make a salary of about $85,000 as a senior buyer. My typical duties include overseeing the purchasing process, developing and implementing purchasing strategies, and working with suppliers to get the best deals on goods and services. I also work with other departments within my company to ensure that all procurement needs are met.

I hear you. How many hours a day do you work and in all honesty how complex is your portfolio? Also, where are you located?

A senior buyer typically earns a salary of around $75,000. As a senior buyer, you may be responsible for overseeing the purchasing process and developing purchasing strategies. Additionally, you may be responsible for negotiating prices and contracts with suppliers, and ensuring that all products and services meet the organization's quality standards.

I make around 82K. I’ve been in the position for little over 6 months and while I’m still getting the hang of my portfolio I can’t help but feel how complex the portfolio is and how the pay isn’t equivalent to the labor. Granted, there are many internal projects in progress, change controls and processes improvements, which makes things a lot harder. Once things get settled (which will likely take a LONG time) things will be more manageable.

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.
