If she's serving as an independent contractor after her normal hours, those hours would not count as overtime. They are totally separate and she should bill accordingly, setting her rate at whatever she chooses. That said, she didn't have to answer the phone AND she should have notified her manager that she was only available as a freelancer and quoted her price. At that point, the manager could have agreed to the terms or not.
@@hillbillydeluxe27 actually no. No court, no labor dep. will recognise this as overtime or freelance, if this was one time off, and she did not inform manager when she accepted work. This is problem in communication skills.
@@abupinhus actually, that very case was adjudicated where I live and they found in favour of the employee. Maybe you live in an area with a lot of fascists and right wing nut bars.
Unless she has a signed contract to work freelance HR might not side with her. They will have to pay her OT for what her manager asked her to do but they may only approve one hour. They will then talk to the manager and you will never have this problem again.
My company would never do this. The world would have to be coming to an end for them to call me at home when I'm not working. I realize this happens in the real world, but I have to defend Veronica on this one
@@Ephemeral2023, at one company I drove for my Driver Manager would as who would like to be "on call" during a holiday weekend. I'd volunteer since I didn't have any kids at home and get paid $50 a day just to sit at the house. I also had stopped consuming alcohol in 1977. If I had to go recover or repower a load I also got paid the mileage from my house to wherever and then the mileage to take it where it needed to go.
That’s the problem with a lot of these videos unless she was really awesome at her job. They wouldn’t put up with this. And the timesheet would be easy they simply wouldn’t approve it.
@@themoretruthfultruth Yes, the state would take a view of her not being paid for hours worked. But she added two hours as her minimum which is something she just made up and HR wouldn’t approve after the fact. As far as the state goes, if you’re called for a five minute phone call then you’re owed five minutes worth of wages.
You go Veronica!!!!!!
This is some kind af a fairy tale. 😂😂😂😂
LOVE Veronica. She Don't play!

This way, her supervisor learns her lesson.

@@hillbillydeluxe27fascist or right wing nut bar ... didn't expect that!
Thank you. Many of these videos, though entertaining, are just an employee’s fever dream. Heh

I want to work with Veronica but I dont' want her working for me hehe

Turn your work phone off at 5:00
Yes.
It amazes me how many hundreds of content creators have stolen these scripts.
If this is common American industrial practice, they would certainly have serious problems with me if I were there
Who's the voice/voices of the characters for the Veronica pol. Of the GPlus channels?!
Can't be both overtime and freelance contractor.
Why do so many content creators steal these scripts. Geez, you are a content creator so why not actually create content instead of stealing it.
Why would Veronica take the call tho ?
It's two hours of time and a half.
Like me. I was a jackass for answering my phone when my "team" leader called me at home with my family. Never again.

Just fire her and hire someone who's worth your time

Fire her because she won’t work for free after 5:00? You sound like some mediocre middle management brown nose
@@neilkurzman4907 Then it would become a state problem. States take a dim view of expecting employees to work without getting paid.

Why should she cover for a lazy and stupid supervisor? The manager just doesn't want HR to see the paperwork cataloguing her sloppiness as a boss.
