Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Overtime and travel time

Hello there,

I currently for a tween retailer in California. I was hired in late June of 2008. When I was brought on I was told that I would be trained for two weeks and then I would be transferred to the store I was hired for. (Much closer to my home). I spent close to an hour an a half driving one way for four months while working at this store. They kept dragging it out, stating that ''your going soon''. I was never paid for mileage, but was reimbursted for parking. $10.00 a day, (other employees had annual parking passes). I was clearly a borrowed manager. Can I or should I be reimbursted for mileage?

Question number 2:

I worked an overnight floorset a few weeks ago. They had me scheduled 9pm-12am, and then 12am-7:30am, the following day. I worked roughly 10 hours sraight, BUT because of the hours blocked into two seperate days, I was never paid overtime. Same goes for all of my employees who worked with me. Are we entitled to over time?

Please get back to me.
