Many years ago, I was hired by Shell oil company.
The position was salaried-non exempt as it was a technical position. That meant salary plus overtime.
The working schedule was 4x10 (10 hrs per day 4 days per week).

Let it go (but I haven't read the rest of the thread either)....
If'n you don't, I'm afraid some very large corporations are gonna ask me to "unretire" as I owe them some back "hours"
Always salaried and exempt, I worked HARD early in my career to reach a certain level and always felt under compensated then (for what I KNEW and did)....more than made up for it later during the "gravy train years" though
