I work for a small company in CA. Before this, I worked for a short time at a big co. making a great hourly rate but I felt out of place. When I heard about my current job, I went for the interview, and the owner told me everything I wanted to hear. She said that she'd match the hourly pay I was getting at the big company. The catch was, I had to quit that job right away and start the new company. I did it.
Now when I came here, there was 5 regular employees: all women. At first everything seemed fine, until about 3 weeks in, when I was about to face a couple weeks with 10+ mandatory OT. I asked the owner what the procedure was for OT. She told me that I was now going to be paid salary & if I wanted hourly it'd be $2 less/hr. Next she got disrespectful, yelling at me and then picking fights with another girl, saying we gossip about her (a lie) and almost fired her for no other reason. She acts crazy. I wish I could quit but I need unemployment, & I don't have any job offers yet. Help!
