    I have never lost a penny on a W2 job.
    if a previous employer had stiffed me, a simple call to the unemployment division would’ve solved my issues.
    1099 is a contract and requires a court to decide.

    Doesn’t mean you won’t get stiffed. Ask the guys at Arrow and Celedon

    Yes, being paid 1099 is legal.
    But it is not legal for a company to pay you 1099 while you drive their equipment and they dictate how or where you run.
    Just them owning the equipment would technically make you an employee.
     
    Dale thompson Thanks this.

    No it would not, the terms of the agreement would dictate whether you were an employee or not

    The IRS does not care what agreement you have in place.
    The IRS has specific rules in place to determine if you are a contracted employee.
    If you drive Joe Blows tractor and he dispatched you, then you are an employee
     
    Oddu Rome Thanks this.

    . Ding ding ding WINNER terms of agreement or a contract signed by both parties clearly defining work to be preformed and compensation. The abuse by Boris and Vlad is nothing new John Ray and Billy Bob were doing it 40 years ago.

    So why are all of the LP guys on a 1099? You would make a terrible lawyer.
