Anyone know if the hosts get time and a half on Thanksgiving? I surprised Leah Williams had to host right during the dinner hour considering she is a seasoned host.maybe a moderator can chime in on QVCs pay policy.

I would hope customer service and warehouse workers would get time and a half or double time. The hosts obviously get paid really well. From some the houses they have and designer clothes they wear, especially Shawn I am sure they are paid well.

I read awhile ago that the a new person who sells at the Q gets 100,000.00 to start and 4 weeks of vacation.
But things might of changed since then.

They are probably Union, in that case they are treated fairly. Look at all the ones who have been there for years. They seem to have a lot of time off and can afford to travel and take nice vacations.

Hi Reever, It's SC. I read where you spent Thanksgiving alone and I am sure you were wanting the Q hosts to be able to enjoy their families on Thanksgiving. I figure they know in advance their work schedule and get something figured out. It was kind of you to have their holiday at heart. Love, SC

I tried to be festive. Made roasted Brussels sprouts and stuffing with a pre made rotisserie chicken.

But all alone. Had QVC on as background noise. I ate dinner with Leah Williams then switched to Brett Hamilton and Rachel on QVC2.

I am saddened. I miss my departed mother and her meals. I am drawn to tears but trying to be thankful for what I have."

Nice clothes, nice houses, and nice cars don't necessarily indicate how well one is paid. It can indicate that one is in more debt than others.

The OP did not ask to know anyone's personal income. All she asked was does QVC pay time and a half. There's absolutely nothing wrong with wondering about the practice of businesses we frequent or even ones we don't.

If you were to ask if I am paid overtime at my job I would tell you that I was when I was hourly. When I became a salaried employee that changed and overtime is only paid after reaching a certain number of hours. Ask my income and I'd tell you it's none of your business. The two questions are totally different.
