What is the name of your state? OH
I am in sales, I am required to be at the sales location, 6 days a week, open to close, responsible to open and close. 45 - 50 hrs. per week. The nature of the sales is such that if you sold the very first day of employment the soonest you could possibly get your commissioned earned is 3-4 months later.
They pay a "draw", so bottom line is you will always be in draw. At what point should an employer be required to pay a salary for the employee to man the store, answer the phones, shovel the snow, sweep the floors, clean the office, etc... this is their way of getting very cheap labor without paying overtime and commission- The OT is another issue that I did bring up and they are currently in denial on that one. If they call it draw then anything goes. Yes, I do get taxed, and yes I am told the hours I will work and no I cannot come or go at will, I get one week pd. vacation.
