I once read a book that said that the source of unhappiness comes from the distance or gap between who you are and who you know you could be.  Caving on your potential is what causes an uneasy feeling. So if everyone knew that fact, and agreed with it – would it mean that suddenly everyone would be inspired and engaged? And my answer is: probably not.  It’s not enough to know it – y…

We’ve all done it. The eye-roll and the, “oh no, here they come…” You’re either at a rest stop on your way to somewhere that requires hours in the car, or you’re already at your destination, such as a public area or landmark in Washington D.C. Sure enough, here comes the hoard of matching colors. It’s a group of people, in many cases children, that are loud, animated, and full of ex…

The first time you see your colleagues outside of work is always weird, I think.  It’s like when you were in elementary school and solidly believed that your teacher literally lived in the school until you ran into her at the grocery store with your mom.  In both scenarios, it’s a case of personal and professional worlds colliding – worlds that, for the most part, we tend to keep se…

I was about to hit a new decade. I was on the brink of leaving a stage in life I would never be part of again.  Was I ready? While I endured the approach of December 1, 2016, I realized I wasn’t the only one dreading my birthday. Employers across the country were scrambling in trepidation. But for a different reason. December 1, 2016, was the day the new FLSA overtime regulations we…

How was your Thanksgiving?   For Sabrina, Thanksgiving was the usual loud Italian family gathering – aunts, uncles, cousins all crammed around one big dining room table with a conversation at record-breaking decibel levels. For Jeff, as always, Thanksgiving was a small gathering.  But this year, with a one-year-old niece stumbling around the house, it was at least very entertai…

Traffic. Again. It’s 8:16 am and I’m sitting at one of the many red lights along Route 206, staring at a stick figure family on the back windshield of the SUV in front of me and thinking about how great it would be to actually get coffee pumped into my system through an IV drip. It’s about a forty-five-minute drive for me to get to work in the morning, and more than half of that dri…

Before we moved our office to Berkeley Heights, NJ, we were located in Jersey City. I’d like to take a minute to relive my old commute out loud for you… It is 8:25 am, and yes, that’s me in the driver’s seat of the beige Ford Focus about to take exit 14 off the NJ Turnpike North. I have the radio tuned to 88.3 FM because the smooth yet upbeat morning jazz always seems fitting as the…

Hi, I’m Jeff.  I’m funny, but she’s a better writer. Hi, I’m Sabrina.  Yes, I am a better writer…and he’s not that funny. You’re entering the world of two young adults who have recently crossed that terrifyingly irreversible line from college life into the workforce.  Don’t get us wrong, we love our jobs here, but it is definitely a change from our time in school.  Sure, they tried…

Overtime Shuffle - Lyrics

Overtime, oh, it’s a complicated game, Different rules in every state, it’s never the same, Multiply by 1.5, but there’s more to see, In this overtime equation, it’s not that easy, you see.

VERSE 1
In the world of work, there’s a tale to be told, About overtime hours, and the payroll gold, A consistent paycheck, that’s the worker’s dream, But when it comes to overtime, it’s not as easy as it seems.

PRE-CHORUS
Oh, Susie worked hard in San Francisco town, But the rules around overtime, they had her feeling down, 42 hours this week, she gave her all, Now it’s time to calculate, let the numbers fall.

CHORUS
Overtime, oh, it’s a complicated game, Different rules in every state, it’s never the same, Multiply by 1.5, but there’s more to see, In this overtime equation, it’s not that easy, you see.

VERSE 2
Exempt or non-exempt, the title they hold, Where they work, where you’re based, it’s all in the fold, California or New York, the laws they diverge, For payroll admins, it’s a never-ending surge.

PRE-CHORUS
Oh, the DOL’s website, a labyrinth to explore, State regulations galore, it’s quite a chore, Staying compliant, it’s a tricky art, Missing out on requirements can break your heart.

CHORUS
Overtime, oh, it’s a complicated game, Different rules in every state, it’s never the same, Multiply by 1.5, but there’s more to see, In this overtime equation, it’s not that easy, you see.

BRIDGE
But here’s a method that can save the day, A payroll software, to keep errors at bay, Input the info right, integrate with ease, No more manual labor, no more overtime fees.

VERSE 3
Back to Susie’s story, she’s owed her due, According to FLSA, it seems we have a clue, $860 on the table, that’s what we’d say, But California’s got its rules, changing the way.

PRE-CHORUS
Oh, California says, hours past eight, Are overtime-eligible, don’t underestimate, Now Susie’s owed $900, that’s the decree, In this overtime puzzle, you gotta set it free.

CHORUS
Overtime, oh, it’s a complicated game, Different rules in every state, it’s never the same, Multiply by 1.5, but there’s more to see, In this overtime equation, it’s not that easy, you see.

OUTRO
So when it’s overtime, and the rules entwine, Choose a payroll software, let it all align, Viventium’s the name, we’ve got the key, To make overtime calculations a breeze, you’ll see.

ENDING
