5. I kissed overtime goodbye 10 years ago when I took a position on salary.

It does offer me quite a bit of flexibility as you legally only have to work like 6 hours per day to get paid for the full day, so when I was hourly before that and had a doctor appointment I would clock out and take off for 2 hours and not get paid for it. Now on salary they are a lot more flexible, so they just let me take the 2 hours off and not worry about making it up.
