You can't be exempt and paid hourly. That makes you hourly. Pursue your rights under it.

You are legally entitled to morning, lunch and afternoon breaks. Denial results in you being entitled to OT, interest and penalties, and ultimately, attorney fees if you win in court.

If serious about hiring counsel to help in this, and if this is in SoCal courts, feel free to contact me.
