    Look this is a serious serious problem, the owner is a pos who will dump on you in a second, if you have an accident, or an incident, he will screw you over in a New York minute.

    And I can not stress this enough, if you care about your family and your means to make money

    FIND ANOTHER JOB.

    Anything less will put you, your family, your assets and your future at a huge risk.


    I fight against these owners, I have screwed a few out of business because of their treatment of drivers and how they are so cheap and mess the entire industry up.

    I can see why too. Listen, if you are responsible for your taxes you are NOT an employee under most circumstances. I know this because employers are required to fill out an IRS form 941 every 3 months on ALL employees. If you are getting a 1099 at the end of the year you are not on that form 941. Only you know your full situation. I still advise walking away. However in the end this is your decision. Oh and to answer your first question, YES he can collect an escrow.
