I'm confused. You seem to be applying (B) to the contractor somehow, where my reading is that it applies to the company doing the contracting. It doesn't matter what the contractor is doing; if a company makes widgets, they can't hire a contractor to make widgets. It doesn't matter if the widgets are a different color or if the contractor only ever makes widgets for any given company for a few months at a time.

A company that hires contractors who bounce from gig to gig meets (B) assuming that the software in the other gigs applies to different businesses. Assume I make websites on contracts. If I make a website for a butcher, a baker, and a candlestick maker; the butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker clearly meet (B).
- 0xffff2 7y agoIn those specific examples they meet (B), irrespective of the contractor's work habits. If you make a website for another web developer, the web developer who hired you might not meet (B), regardless of who else you've made websites for. I admit the analogy is a bit tortured, but the point is that (B) depends entirely on the contractee's business and what they're hiring the contractor to do.
