Hey, the days of being paid as a contractor are over.... Nothing of what we are asked is under a contractor's work ... If don't think so check out the 10 questions the IRS ask you...
like did they tell you were and when to report to a job site??...
Did someone over look your work???
Anyone one question will make the red flags go off.....
Also being on payroll gives you a lot more legal ground to stand on....
But in the end use your common sense... If it looks unsafe then..... run.....
Friday night transpo was moving a piece of equipment on set when it flipped over and crashed a 50 foot techno crane !
thank goodness that no one was killed.... and this is something that "trained" operators have happen....
use your common sense out there.....
