Thank you, Mr. Trump!

I hope things move in a positive direction.

For me it got started off in the opposite. As I mentioned in another thread, it's likely Trump will undo Obama's action on overtime laws. My company had planned to hire several dozen new workers because it would be cheaper than paying overtime. 

This morning they halted that plan "indefinitely." 

I end up having to put in a lot of overtime because my employees are already working over 60 hours, diluting their wages to ridiculous amounts. It's hard to convince someone with a degree to work for 70 hours at what figures out to about $12 an hour. One of the last sales managers I had quit after a month. She could make more as a waitress working four nights a week, she said, because at least she didn't have to pay taxes.
