Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Re: Exempt General Manger

Titles such as "General Manager" are irrelevant. To be properly classified as exempt under the Executive exemption (which looks at how many people you directly supervise as part of the test) you would have to be supervising 2 or more full time employees at all times.

To be exempt under the "Outside Salesperson" exemption, you must spend at least 50% of your time physically away from any office, branch office or employer location, actually engaged in sales or sales-related work.

From what you have described so far, you likely are not properly classified as exempt, but no one can tell you for certain until they review all of your job duties with you.
