Unless they ask you to do something that s not safe or legal, they can ask you to pull weeds if they want to.Is it fair?I don t know.But I do know there s some 12 million people out of work.And there s someone willing to take your place before the door shuts behind you.
You are really lucky to have a job.When you work for a company they can have you do whatever they want to as long as they are writing the paycheck.If cleaning the locker room is below you, you could refuse or quit.I would hang onto the job and feel good that I was working.They must have felt that you had extra time on your hands and could handle the extra work when you didn t have a client.I was put on salary once and the hours sky rocketed.Even if you are on salary ( 40 hr.s ) per week,There is still the matter of minimum wage.So if you are working over 40 hours, figure out your weekly hours and see what you are really making per hour.I went back to the hourly rate. They had me working till 10 pm at times.
to me it seems as if it is not fair i think mabey you should take it up with your manager but WARNING be nice about it and DO NOT seem to upset if you do he or she will get mad and possibly fire you. if that dosnt work then dont push it try to negotiate the usa s finance is getting really bad! good luck i hope this pays off! : )
Yes, they can. You can try to negotiate though. I wouldn t push it. With all the layoffs lately, I d stay under the radar. We ve had 3 layoffs in our department and I took on two of those jobs along with what I m already doing for the same pay.
You do the job you re paid to do. If your manager thinks this should be part of your job then it is.
It is their policyand yes it fair, which is why it is salaried.
quit or stay. Thems your choices.
