Quoting from the thread: "California has, as most states do, I believe, a wage level above which an employee can be considered exempt (if he or she also meets other criteria). In most industries, this is twice the minimum wage; but only in the computer software industry, it was $41 per hour as of 2001 and is indexed, so it will be $43.58 per hour next year." The discussion was about whether "an employee" *can* be considered exempt "in the computer software industry." Some employees in that industry can be considered exempt without satisfying the wage test. Even among people who do programming as part of their job, except at the most entry level, some will also have other responsiblities which could qualify them under the executive or administrative exemptions.
