so my situation isn't very relevant to fastlane issues but I figured some of you guys might know information that could help me out. anyways, my current job is in the auto industry where you are paid "flat rate" in most cases where you are paid based on the work you do. I was hired into a place that had a verbal agreement that I would be paid $10 per hour but I would be paid $14 per hour once I went to flat rate. Well they gave me my first 5 paystubs all on the 5th week and I noticed I was making $14 per hour from day 1. So I assumed since I had college education in the field and $14 was mentioned as a flat rate pay that they just started me out at that rate. My boss has handed me pay stubs ever since and has had to look at them and here it is 3 1/2 months later and now he is saying they "just noticed the error" and I am liable to pay the $4 per hour back from the last 3 1/2 months! I live in Michigan and cannot find any information regarding the matter because everybody who has an "overpaid" situation was overpaid a wage that they didnt orignally start at. I need to know what to do, because if they dont have any solid case against me which I cant see how they would then I will be quitting this job instantly and pursuing my fastlane plan... thanks in advance guys
