Legal Question in Employment Law in Nevada
I work at a electrician/construction company, and I call every morning for my job site that day.... Well I started calling and being told I wasn't needed that day, a few days of the same thing go by and then they tell me to hang in there because they are Holding hours so they can be a 500,000 company on their taxes, another few days of the same response and then they say that they are starting a huge job in the next couple days and to hang in there..... Its been a month the now of no hours and no pay and continuously being told to wait till monday. Can they do this to employees???

It looks like you are unemployed, according to the Nevada definition: You did not say you had a contract of employment guaranteeing certain work. Here is the link for definitions and benefits.
