Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

The BBB eliminates taxes on over time

The misclassification of my role will now impact my earnings.

I will not allow the company to misrepresent my role to save them from paying me tax free overtime and prevent me from receiving additional income.

T is the law. They will do what they want and there is nothing you can do.

The law is written so that employers actually cannot legally reclassify or manipulate hours to take advantage. And also - doesn’t apply to bargained workforces.

Fantasize all you want. AT&T will reclassify to pay you less and if you dare talk back they will eject you onto the pavement with no unemployment. Texas is a pro employer state and T will do what they want with you and your body. So shut up and get vaxxed and boosted you are now salary working 80 a week you unwashed cave dweller. Now bow down and worship your badge! You can’t do any better!

@OP Not exactly...

The policy will impact Americans who work beyond standard hours—40 for those in full-time roles—in hourly wage jobs. The no-tax-on-overtime provision would allow individuals to deduct up to $12,500 of overtime pay from their taxable income for tax years 2025 through 2028, while couples filing jointly could deduct up to $25,000.

The deduction phases out for those earning more than $150,000 individually, or $300,000 as a couple. This move does not eliminate payroll taxes for Social Security and Medicare on overtime income, nor does it affect state taxes.

The White House projects average savings of up to $2,000 annually for qualifying workers.

But while it could save money for eligible workers, the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center estimated in February this year that only 2 percent of all U.S. households would benefit, with an average tax cut of around $1,800.

For the lowest-earning households taking home less than $33,000 a year, very few will see significant gains; just 1.4 percent would be expected to benefit by about $450 a year, while the average increase is only $10 for most in this income group.

You obviously don’t know how this works. The company isn’t saving money, they pay overtime anyway. It was the government getting money by taxing.

If you aren’t hourly you were getting the money to begin with.

Now that I am 8 & skate, I don't do OT hours. I do my 40 and leave.

It won’t affect me. I don’t work OT. I generally put in about six hours a day.

I don't know how we have so many stupid a-s people working at our company.

A project manager is a manager. A program manager is a manager. MANAGER DOES NOT MEAN MANAGING PEOPLE. That is called a supervisor.

Union = non-management
Salaried = manager

I hope all non-management people are classified correctly so they don't have to pay taxes on overtime.

A lot of people are misclassified as managers when they manage no one. Most people working in the offices are manager in name only to get around OT rules. I track my hours since they started this presence report business and it’s a real eye opener. With basic time and a half rule my salary would nearly double per year. That how much they have some people working.
