Hey Josh,
You were going to check with google back on 10/24/13 to see if they were

If anyone on the list is in a similar situation, we should talk. This area is
fraught with serious potential liability. Remember that you can’t simply
designate someone as a “contractor,” even if they agree to do it. There are

It¹s my understanding that contractors can¹t punch a time clock.

which logs hours. If you don¹t have one fresh books is web based and pretty

To clarify, contractors can punch a time clock. There’s no black and white
rule against this. The key is WHY are they punching a time clock? For
instance, there might be situations where you require the contractor to track
hours so you can bill a customer or keep statistics on service calls
One other to really think about how to make the distinction is this:
Are you hiring an individual or a business? If you're paying an
individual to do work for you, there's a good chance that they're NOT an
independent contractor. If you're paying a business then they probably
are. And to
It helps to include the word static in the PTR record. At least one

block lists. That is, if your give static IP addresses.

Unfortunately, no, you can’t assume that. The existence of a business entity
is only one of many factors.
As I said a little earlier, there’s no magic test. “He has a business. He
sends me an invoice from that business. He does other work, too. He’s a
contractor.” is probably the most
And to pick on law makers, if you have to already be in the business to
be considered a contractor, then how the heck do you get your first client?
