This tweet really took off. Please remember that as an independent contractor, you have rights. Freelancing means that you have the right to set your own hours and work where you want. If you’re working 40 hours a week for one company, you are their employee. I can’t speak for other countries but in the United States, you can report companies who misclassify workers to the IRS and/or the Department of Labor.
