You don't have to answer this, but I'm curious what industry you work in? There have been
a number of lawsuits, especially in the banking industry, recently alleging unpaid over time. Granted most of those cases involved salaried employees but they seem to have sent shockwaves throughout the country.
Panicked employers everywhere dialing up their lawyers to try and see if there's any way they can retroactively cover their butts and make sure problems don't arise in the future.
