no, you are not entitled to the extra pay.. Because they are some what on calls, somthing their not even being called to work... As for you, your hours are fix and salary are fix which its a good thing... because even if they make more then you on hourly, but thier not called into work everyday like you... get it? so there for No..

Salaried employees get a straight salary, no matter how many (or how few) hours they work. You may want to check with the payroll department about overtime pay. Sometimes salaried employees do qualify for overtime. If there's a problem, you may want to discuss it with a supervisor to see if something can be worked out. Before I went to my supervisor, I'd check my contract or employee handbook, if there is one, to see what it says about responsibilities and so forth.
I imagine that if you can take care of your job responsibilites in a short time, you could get away with working less hours. But if for some reason you have more to do than you can get done in the average working day, then you're up the creek and maybe need to devise a system that works for you.

makes you rethink salary vs. hourly, huh?
maybe next time you're up for a review, discuss with your boss the option of switching to hourly so you can clock the extra hours. Remember, overtime (anything over 8 hours a day - no matter how little you've worked any other days that week) is time and a half.

This will depend on the labor laws in your area and the agreement you have with the company. Some my choose to pay extra for this and some my not (especially if it is not required by law). If I were to guess, not knowing where you are, most likely you are not.
Kind of like jury duty pay. It is not required, but some companies pay it.
In many cases, what you get is dependent on what you can bargain for in your employment agreement. I've read of people getting vacation hours off the bat, seniority, etc... when moving to a new job.
