delivery drivers for a major online retainer who did not pay the drivers overtime properly;
an assisted living company that automatically deducted from employee time records for meal breaks and rest periods, when employees regularly worked through such breaks;
a franchise restaurant with multiple locations that did not properly use the “tip credit” and failed to pay overtime to its waitstaff;
debt collectors who were not paid overtime;
electricians for a State contractor who were paid straight time and not overtime when working more than 40 hours in workweek; and
waitresses at a bar who was only paid in tips.
