FLSA Question

According to the FLSA, there are various exemptions to non-exempt employees getting overtime. Such examples include:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

Outside buyers of poultry and dairy products

Agricultural employees

Live-in domestic workers

and.....

Movie theater employees

 

I had to do a double take here. The teens who give me my popcorn and M&Ms at the movie theater aren't subject to overtime? I've been doing some research on this and I cannot find a specific reason why they are not allowed overtime, by law. I know companies will probably pay them overtime anyway, but I was stunned to see that they are not lawfully obligated to do so. Anyone know why? Thoughts? Comments?
