It is an internet based training company who guarantees they will find you a job in data entry field if you sign up with them at 99.00 for training, you get manuals, etc. She wanted me to look over this company. Sounds fishy to me. What do you think? Ever heard of them? Any experiences?

Thanks!

need to lease space on an FTP for my clients to upload files,  just need something dependable

By the way, you'd be correct on the media - I'm not into American Medial...I get my news from Europe, other foreign places, MY VENEZUELAN FAMILY (in laws)...BBC is a good one (love Christiana Amanpour).  But Chavez is a Castro Mini-Me in my thinking...and I'm being *kind* due to being on a public board....

I am not sure how to PM you from this forum, so I emailed you instead. 

Thanks

This is what was forward to me. It comes from the accountant -  

I have not heard about the IRS pushing for this.  However, I seem to recall hearing that the FTB is pushing for this in California.  Basically, it is easier for the tax collectors to get their money from employer contributions as opposed to quarterly payments.  The independent contractor status has been under attack for a number of years and this may be the way to finally eliminate it.  Check with your accountant to see if he/she has heard anything.

Thanks for your reply and your time in replying, but I totally disagree.  (I don't reply back in email, as I never know WHO it is replying back to me... could be my MTSO!)

Just because I'm an IC for an MTSO does not mean they own me.  If they want to own me, I had better be getting a hefty salary, insurance, 401K, paid vacation, sick leave, personal days, season tickets to the Cowboys games, and a company car like my husband gets from his job. (And they do own him sometimes, up to 80 hours a week and more, but he sure doesn't get paid per line! Not hardly.)  It was all IN MY CONTRACT. 

You are right, she does not care that I have children. I DO. Which is why it was IN MY CONTRACT that I do a 24-hour turnaround, no less without prearrangement.  I am not asking her to care about my family, but I am asking her to care about the contract.  Sorry, but I refuse to do what you did and have someone else take care of my children.  That is why I do MT rather than make a lot more using my college education.  This is why it was, I repeat, in my contract. 

It does not just come back to what the boss wants.  She's not my "boss". I am my own boss, working within the bounds of our contract.  She is the one who keeps wanting me to go beyond my contract with no consideration for it, and it's not going to happen. 

If, like you seem to indicate, that's just how MT is... then yes, I will end up leaving the business.  However, judging by the other responses, this MTSO needs to learn the difference between IC and an employee/slave combo.
