It looks like they hire employee status and maybe they don't want to be hampered by California's minimum wage law ($7.50 and due to go up in 2008 to $8 I believe)and/or overtime laws. I'm not sure about other states, but if you live in CA, if you work more than 8 hours in a day, you get OT pay. It doesn't matter if you work full time or not. This is in addition to if you work over 40 yours in a week. So, if you only work 1 day a week but work 10 hours, you get 8 hours of regular pay and 2 hours of OT.
