We called my aunt who also worked for him to figure out how much an hour he gave us. It turns out it was $8/hour. My Mom usually get minimum wage, $9.50/hour plus she worked a lot of hours overtime. Instead of overtime pay she gets paid even less.

My Mom has to work with my uncle so she is telling me not to make a deal out of this, since he is family.

If he would have come right out and said he would pay us less than minimum wage I would have maybe been OK with this. But the problem with this is that he has absolutely no money problems plus I am not that close to him. I think we deserve to be paid for our work. I'm not even asking for more than minimum wage for goodness sake! Plus I worked 10 days in a row without a break for him, as did my Mom, who worked even more. I was dead tired at the end of the night and so was my Mom.

Anyways, my Mom told me not to make a fuss out of this. I just hate that my Mom is letting my uncle take advantage of her like this.

He is family and yet he still cheats us.

Good thing I drank like $20 worth of pop and juice while I was working there. LOL Of course I didn't let him know that. LOL

I am not working for him again. I encourage my Mom to not work for him either next summer.
