Yes. Make a demand to be paid, and if you aren't, then you could file a lawsuit or a claim with the Labor Commissioner. If serious about hiring counsel to help in this, and if this is in SoCal, feel free to contact me.

Yes. If you report to work on time, you should be paid from the time your schedule begins. Keep track of your time and the amount of time you have not been paid. Ask to be paid for it and if the company refuses, call an employment law attorney to assist you.
