I don't get paid extra for coming in early / staying late on week nights, weekends, or holidays. I look at it as paying it forward. I'm willing to help others because I know at some point I will need their help or feedback on my projects. And it's the right thing to do...

If the employee is at work during business hours, it makes no difference if they are sitting down staring at the wall or helping a potential customer. The owner is still paying them either way. I personally would do it for free to build relationships with new potential clients.

You have a great work ethic that will pay dividends down the road. I have found that teamwork and building relationships will get you much, much further in life than being cutthroat ever will.
