Companies that classify people as contractors unnecessarily – when they control every aspect of the delivery and experience as if they were using real W-2 employees – demean people. They really do. It's like being called horrible names, but just in a different way. The end result is the same. They feel social rejection and hurt. People remember how they think you made them feel. Being given a surprise self-employment tax bill for the privilege of driving strangers around in your own car to make ends meet feels demeaning. We need to recognize that.
