I've looked all over and cant find a thread for this one...
I was fired on Monday night, and on Tuesday recieved my previous weeks pay, and my PTO due. I'm not seeing where they paid me for the day I worked, plus, I was wondering if I'm a salaried exempt employee, if they should have paid me for the entire week? Tks!

No, a salaried exempt employee does not have to be paid for a full week if the employee did not work a full first or last week of work.
