If you're not on-call, stop answering your phone. That fixes the issue outright. "I left it at the house." "Battery was dead." "Dog ate it, new one in the mail." You get my drift. If you're not on call, it isn't your leash (if you are on-call, welcome to my life, but my company pays without issue).
"We actually do charge an after hours fee, which is another thing that gets me. You charge them the fee, but then don't pay me the OT the fee is supposed to cover. "
Sounds like GREED on his part. OT is why you charge more for afterhours / rush jobs. He just want his cake and YOURS, too.
If you work 4 hours over, then you can schedule 4 hours off in the same pay period on him (instead of OT) and you still end up with a normal balance at the end of the year.
I thank you...Legal beagle.
That whole thing is muddy. Comp time is within the same pay period in FLSA.Federal overtime issues are calculated on a PER WEEK basis, not per pay period: be that weekly, bi-weekly or bi-monthly

He singled you out to be the sucker of the bunch. Don't let him take advantage of you cause it wont stop. He thinks you exist to make his life easier.
