    Upon inquiring, the person I texted said both 1099 and w2 get paid the same - .55/mi. When asking why 1099 doesn't pay more, he said "Cause we chose not to. It's just a tax thing."

    Before, when they posted a dedicated run on CL, I asked if I could just do the dedicated run to TX and back to MI. He said he'd check, but never responded. I gather that's likely a bait and switch.

    They post regularly on CL with the same ads. Hell, they could be a great company to steer the wheel for. But the difference between w2 and 1099 is a heck of a big deal. I don't know any reason why someone would do 1099 in that circumstance. It stinks of skirting taxes.

    This company wouldn't happen to be from Chicago, would it?
