You are in for a rude awakening.

No, it's not fair.

Yes, they will fire you if you don't do it.

Pretty sure there is a new law that requires them to pay ot but idk I'm not some salary cuck white collar Jew slave

As someone living on the West Coast, I would never take a salary job less than $100k. Your area's high-paying average salary might vary, but the principle is the same.

When you're salary, you are basically on-call. Certain industries have loopholes (software & other tech jobs) where employers are not required to pay for overtime. In a way, salary is slavery if you don't learn the rules of the game.

For example, take advantage of autonomy. If you have a WFH policy, do the minimum on these days. If you're hungover, blame it on a migraine. Use children and family to take time off. Work freelance during slow periods. Avoid routines and schedules, but make sure to be available when higher ups might notice you're gone. Only commit to projects where you'll further your career. Push for company/team outings for free shit and wasted time. Streamline your work,and outsource what eats up your time. Avoid having to be on-call as much as possible. Don't let the go-getters determine paces for team efforts. Makes others see your efforts as complex, yet effortless for you.

There's a lot of good stuff in The 48 Laws of Power. Play the game or have it play you.

Otherwise, get a higher-paying hourly gig after about a year of experience.

Coming from someone who works in the trades where salaries are basically non-existent, man do I feel sorry for you.

>1 hour lunch

What the fuck do you do for an hour? Bring your own food/go to a place nearby and get food, eat at your desk.

Should take you 20min tops, 30 on a bad day.

you're gettin cucked mate.

$55k aint bad, but with the slaving you are doing I hope they have promotions and raises in the works for you.

Plenty of money ain't so great when you have no free time to enjoy it.

>come in at 9
>leave at 5
>hour long lunch break
That is a 7 hour day OP.
You working an extra 1-2 hours 3-4 days a week (let's just say 1.5*3.5) gets you up to a 40.25 hour work-week. That's 15 minutes more than the "average."

In short, you're a faggot and should kill yourself.
