No, I am obviously hiring Uber. I am going to the Uber app, putting a destination, looking at the price Uber quotes me, and clicking "go". In no meaningful way am I choosing my contractor myself.
Whether Uber chooses to structure the workforce as contractors or employees is their problem, not mine.
- syshum 7y agohmm many of the freelancing sites operate the same way, I go to acme freelance, I put in the work I want done, acme freelance sends me quotes and profiles for people willing to do the work, I click go.. I guess in that instance i am not hiring a "contractor" either I am hiring acme freelance.. good to know To the rest of the world when I have my software developed by a contractor I found on Acme Freelance I did infact hire a contractor, but I guess because this is driving it is some how different? Or because the rates are more standardized? I am trying to figure out why you believe uber is different from the 100's of other freelance websites? or maybe you dont and you believe all of the people selling services on all of those sites should also be Employee's of the sites?
