they took 4 hours and 28 minutes while I was working as a prep cook and paid me below minimum wage while calling it overtime.
the rest of the story seems irrelevant compared to this. How is overtime less than your regular salary? It seems like they paid you the server overtime rate (maybe?) when it should have been the cook overtime rate
Well, the rest of the story is just explanation. This is the crux of the matter, yes. They paid me my server wage for the time when I was serving, then they took the additional 4:28 over 40 hours and gave me the overtime server wage when it was exclusively kitchen work. I guess I'm just looking for confirmation that this is in fact exploitative before I take the step of bringing it to the attention of management.

Like $60. I'm awful at making tips. I think part of it is because I'm introverted and not good at making small talk. And I can't help but wonder if my gender plays a part.
