My old job paid me $18 an hour and paid my "boss" $12 an hour for me. I'm an independent contractor so my boss is my boss in nothing but a courtesy title. Yet he's making almost as much off my work as I am. I suggested The client hire me directly, but the stupid laws in my country don't allow that and favor the corporations and employers.
I wonder if there's any way you could start a company and hire yourself out through it. Those extra '12 dollars' would go toward the company coffers which you have access to. At least in the US a corporation is it's own person so you could totally own it and hire yourself out through it.
I do have my own company, which is how I used to be a contractor and not an employee. That's how they guy used to hire people to get away with not paying benefits. And where I live the government will defend a corporation's non compete, so I can't be hired directly and cut that guy out.
So instead I said fuck it and ended up just becoming an employee elsewhere, but now at least I get union, benefits. Pension, etc. So I'm much better off
Fair enough
