Question

Which statement describes an hourly wage job? Each paycheck is the exact same regardless of number of hours worked. Each paycheck is less, even if an employer wants you to work more hours in a week. If an employer wants the employee to work more hours in a week, the result is a larger paycheck. If the business is closed for a holiday, the employee still gets paid regardless of available vacation hours.
