Need Advice. I am a server, my shift was over, I approached the manager to take my checkout but he ignored me several times. My newborn,who is breastfed, was in the car extremely upset and hungry, with his dad waiting for me. I approached the manager one more time about my checkout, told him I need to run outside and come back in, but he ignored me again. I went to the car, breastfeed my child, came back in 20 mins later and was fired due to leaving the building with my checkout. Any advice

It sounds like you might be being discriminated against. I worked in the industry, on the HR side and thankfully the company I worked for did not see this very often but unfortunately it does happen. I would contact your main HR Department see how they respond. See if they blow you off or drag their feet to investigate. I would also contact my EEOC and file a complaint as well. You have rights and it sounds like you have grounds for a claim.

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.
