    Default Exempt or non-exempt position

    aka salary or hourly..

    a salaried employee cannot have a specific start or end time, nor set work hours (i.e. minimum # of hours per week)

    that said, employers seem break this rule as often as contractor vs employee guidelines...

    If she isn't on some sort of official (i.e. paper documentation signed by all parties) coaching or improvement plan, then I don't think they would keep all these restrictions on her if everyone else knew about it. Corporate is a big fan of separating people and telling them that everyone is under the same rules.

Money is very hard to make in any economy, and employees who aren't productive aren't worth paying.

    To the OP, that wasn't directed at your wife. She may well be an exemplary employee and her boss may well have a problem with her not based on her performance. There was a sense from some of the responses you got that employers owed employees free time while they are on the clock, and that crap pisses me off.
    Understood.
    She makes dentist/dr. appts - but clocks out to go to them.
    No 'on the clock' appts.
    However - she does do some surfing - but she does use the internet for her job as well.
    IDK how much - I'm sure it isn't as much as me!
