"HOURLY", a specific rate/hour is your financial base for whatever hours or fractions thereof you work. Advantage is that you get paid overtime rates and the more you work (or are allowed to work) the more money you make. Disadvantage is that if you don't work, you don't get paid. Usually considered 'blue collar' jobs.

"SALARY" is a FIXED rate usually given in the yearly aspect and as many hours that are required to accomplish your duties will be paid the same amount on a yearly basis. This is sometimes referred to many salaried employees as "We (the company) own you. Also known as 'Exempt' as you do not get paid overtime. Benefits are usually better and there are paid vacations and holidays and typically a sick day allowance.

"COMMISSION" you only get paid when you sell something or produce a predetermined volume of a product or service. It has the potential for huge payoffs if you are a good salesman. If you are not good, it can be really tough. Some places offer a small salary at a fixed rate (minimum wage if you are lucky) and then commission.
