If my boss says I make 27,000 yearly and we get paid every two weeks, how much should my check be before taxes

Answer 1

27,000 divided by 26 (# of pay periods in a year if you are paid every 2 weeks) = $1,038.46

Answer 2

You might have a complaint you could file but it hinges on the definition of your job title. Not sure what your job is. Salaried used to be a stipulated job description of a manger of 2 or more workers that answered to you and you had the hire/fire capabilities over. But, some of what I was familiar with has changed. I do know in disputes over overtime pay the rule changed so that the average over a 2-week period equals 80 hours, then the company can elect to pay straight time like 2 40-hour weeks. That is, one week could theoretically be 79 hours and the next week 1 hour. This was an effort to lesson the load of court filings. Otherwise, companies could pay piecemeal like requesting say for example, a print shop's pressman, be paid for each job assignment he produces instead of by the hour. Likewise, a carpenter's helper would get so much per wall that he erects. That's why hourly pay exists because two workers might accomplish a product for the owner's profits. Because each state also has their little regulations included in all this, you should go to your state's employment agency and ask for their opinions and literature.
