Question:

Contract Details: Client vs. Employer?

Recently, I tried to work with some friends. I knew it was a risk because I would be leaving a permanent full-time gig for a contract agreement. Anyway, I knew ahead of time that these people are a bit obsessed with power/control. They are both very stubborn as well (they are a couple). 3 days in working with them, the girl says something like "how many 'bosses' do you know that you can play cards with?". This irks me big time. I found it extremely disrespectful. I brought it up and they said I was being too sensitive, and that "technically" they are my bosses. This didn't sit right with me since I would be working with them as an independent contractor. So, my question is, am I right? Would the working relationship be in terms of client/service provider?

Just so you know I didn't sign anything and decided not to work with them.

  1. It sounds like you were an independent contractor/consultant, and as such, they were/are your employer.
