I'm always surprised more business owners don't understand this.

That's exactly the way this is set up. We don't make as much, but they literally kick us out after 40 hours because the contract says they have to pay 1.5x after that point. Great benefits with about 15% under what the private sector pays, but the private sector doesn't kick you out after 40 hours of work.
