Compensation for overtime
I was wondering if anyone out that gets compensation for working overtime. Just about every place I have worked that I was "salary" and I worked overtime, I was given time off later to make up for it. Not saying that for ever hour I worked over I would get sometime off, but say I worked 5 or 6 hours over, my boss would give me a 1/2 day off some other time when I wanted it.
The place I work at now, does not do this and basically do not compensate us at all. They just figure that it's part of our job.
What do you think? and do you get any compensation for working over?
I would love to hear your responses on this issue.

thanks,
Frank
