Sounds kinda fishy to me.

You or your husband should check with your state labor board to be sure.

Wisconsin rules for overtime, I did not find a statute for interstate commerce. There are specific rules for ovetime exemptions listed there, maybe he is under one of them.

It's BS. Unless he's an 'overtime exempt' employee - which means bona-fide management employee or some types of skilled professionals - then he's entitled to overtime pay.

If he's considered a mechanic working on "flat time" he gets no overtime. When my brother was a mechanic he'd be at work 45 hours a week and sometimes only earn 25 hours pay.

Hmm sounds like BS to me. He should be entitle to overtime pay unless he's a salaried employee.
