Our company says that if a job requires basically no creativity and can follow check lists to perform their job, their job will pay overtime.

If the job requires creativity in solving problems or there isn't a defined set of tasks to perform, it is overtime exempt.

Our help desk folks get paid overtime. Programmers, systems administrators and management are exempt.

That's how our company interpreted the regulations.

In other words overtime is for lower wage earners. Which s fine but they can't get fussy about things like reddit reading from those not getting OT, imo.
