I am not a lawyer. I do work and I do get paid for 40 hours a week. Do I frequently have to work more then 40 hours? You betcha! I thought that there was a legal limit. The only practical experience that I had with the law was about doing 80 mph in 55 mph zone. That's not only illegal but also expensive.
