> A driver for Uber does not get the chance to negotiate a fare with a customer and turn it down. The customer is not contracting with the driver, Uber is. Uber offers a fixed rate. Take it or leave it (just like our hypothetical Upwork poster). Negotiation has, as far as I know, never been included as a test of employment status. For one thing, it's a poor test: there are plenty of contractors who don't have the leverage to negotiate, and plenty of employees who do.
