I would like to start with an explanation of the difference between a contract for service and a contract of service which could be helpful to recognise your position.

First of all is about control – who decides what to do? How and when a job is done? Where carry out the job? Next step is about financial risk and its consequences – are you or not the person who risks the money in the business and is responsible for all of consequences whether they are good or bad for the business? Equipment is another thing you should ask yourself about. Do you provide your own or you do not? As it is generally accepted that employees do not provide their own equipment and self-employed persons usually do.

...employee or is self-employed commonly referred to as an independent contractor; an analysis should be made of the individual's employment activity. Factors such as the following should be considered in the evaluation of the individual’s employment activity. For example we may look to see, if the individual works for many firms or clients or just work for one firm or client, if the individual's services are readily available to the public, if they determine their own work hours and schedules, or does the individual receive regular payments from one firm or from a variety of firms. All of these factors play an important role in determining who is an employee and who is an independent contractor. After reviewing Revenue Ruling 87-41 it is a little easier to determine who is an employee under the common law rules. Under these rules twenty factors have been identified in aiding the determination of an individual as an employee. Some of those factors include Instructions where the person for whom the services are performed have the right to require compliance with instructions to determine whether an individual is an employee or is self-employed no one factor should be considered as controlling, but rather all these factors should be reviewed. From a taxable income perspective, I believe it is better to be an independent contractor because all trade or business expenses are deductible for AGI, whereas, if the individual is an employee, any unreimbursed employment-related trade...

...each alternative option can help separate the different choices. Once an analysis is completed, a choice needs to be made on the best option available. The next step will be to implement the choice, and of course one will need to evaluate this choice to see if the outcome is similar to what was hypothesized. There was a time in my life when I was faced with leaving my current job where I had been an employee for 13 years, and start my own corporation to complete the same tasks I was doing as a sub-contractor independent of any particular firm. Leaving long term employment for self employment Decisions are made continually on a daily basis, most are not life altering. There are times when you will have to make a decision that will bring significant changes in life. One decision that I faced was the growing concern that I would need to leave the firm I had been employed with for 14 years, and set off on my own as a self employed sub-contractor. The problem I was facing with my career is that I felt I was not growing as quickly as I wanted to on my career path. I came to this conclusion due to the fact that I felt my company and myself were too comfortable with each other. Growth was being stymied for reasons of “seniority” with other team members. I was having to “wait in line” for my chance at a promotion, even though I felt I was more qualified than my...

The author observes that contrary to main feeling that ethics is a more noteworthy measure of how an individual treats others; it is additionally touches on how one treats himself/herself. Subsequently, the author noticed that while it is vital to buckle down, attempting to the prohibition of other life develops is not reasonable to the individual, and by expansion to those close him, for example, workmates and crew. Key to this paper is an examination of Weinstein’s disputes in light of the guideline of non-evil, an essential rule of morals. I agree with Weinstein's assessment. Weinstein states the primary reasons that individuals give for working hard in the midst of hard financial times. The head is the journey to keep one's employment.

...Transilvania University of Brașov Faculty of Letters MA Study Programme Anglo – American literature by woman MA student: Șerban Agurița Dorinela 1 st year – R.F. 2012 – 2013 Feminism is political label indicating support for the aims of the new woman’s movement which emerged in the late 1960s. This includes seeking to establish equal opportunities for women in education and employment. A feminist is an advocate or supporter of the rights and equality of women. Feminist theory, which emerged from these feminist movements, aims to understand the nature of gender inequality by examining women's social roles and lived experience; it has developed theories in a variety of disciplines in order to respond to issues such as the social construction of sex and gender. Some of the earlier forms of feminism have been criticized for taking into account only white, middle-class, educated perspectives. This led to the creation of ethnically specific or multiculturalism forms of feminism. The feminist movement produced both feminist fiction and non-fiction, and created new interest in women's writing. Nights at the Circus is a novel by Angela Carter, first published in 1984 and that year's winner of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction. The novel focuses on...

Starting from your hygiene, eating habits, school, work, keeping your body in shape to just simple hobbies may have a big impact on your life's longevity and social aspect.

...and nibble on nuts apply potions and lotions, don helmets and hats: All at the behest of my skin. Drinking too much, sleeping too little, lying too long in the sun and I am compelled to feel guilty. Connor says ‘the skin is not a part of the body’ (Connor 2002, 4) and indeed, my skin is like a domineering despot. It petulantly exposes my neglect by painting dark circles under my eyes, smudging the glow and scattering blemishes. It is the reflection of my soul, separate but inseparable from myself - my ‘body’s twin’ (Connor 2002, 5). It is this ‘twin’ (Connor 2002, 5) or my ‘immaterial, ideal, ecstatic’ (Connor 2002. 5) imagining of my skin that constitutes what Cooley described as a ‘looking glass self’. (described by Coser 1997) This concept states that ‘an individual’s self-conception result(s) from assimilating the judgments of their significant others’ (discussed by Mikala, 2012). What we see in this mirror is not our carefully considered actions and the complex thought process that leads us to take them; We only see this ‘shadow’ (Connor 2002, 5) which becomes more than simply the living tissue. It is branded with our outward identity. And so, how we perceive others to view us in turn influences how we see ourselves. This attitude is present without an actual witness though. The...

...vector of Chickering and Reisser’s theory “Establishing identity.” While one could argue the development of student identities takes place during the creation of a profile, the development of the students’ true identity is something that a profile is likely dependent upon. A student’s Facebook profile will not stay the same throughout the duration of a student’s career, but instead grows and changes with the student as they move along a path of self-discovery. It is through the assimilation of friends, relationships, activities, experiences, education and other factors that a student truly defines a sense of self that can be reflected both corporally and digitally. It is in this vector, among others, that the cyclical pattern of Chickering and Reisser’s developmental process stumbles. As most of the vectors concern processes that are ongoing throughout a student’s collegiate or university career and beyond, the development of identity is itself an ongoing, likely never-ending process students will not cease until some point of complete self-actualization....

...Individualism is the idea that the sense of self is greater than the community. It urges its supporters to explore the depths of their psyche, even if it challenges accepted doctrine. To moral criticism, individualism is its greatest enemy. At its core, moral criticism finds its strength through the community over all ideology. This desire for communal uplift allows the people to serve a common purpose when advancing the community. But because of this, the voices of the individual are lost to the wind. During the Age of Romanticism, the people had had enough of being silenced; they sought to wholeheartedly explore their inner self. Through their writings, Washington Irving and Herman Melville were two men fighting for the people’s individuality; much to the dismay of moral critics. Washington Irving, famous writer and individualist, sought to bring individualism to the forefront of society’s progression. He believed the exploration of one’s self was more important than seeking communal prosperity. Irving wanted the people to see the world through lenses untainted by God, religion and the established doctrines. For him, the world’s morality was meant to be created by the individual. This way of thinking was quite scary to the moral critics of this era. The sense of community was being lost in novels centered on individuals. These novels allowed the people to play God, and by doing so, they were able to concoct their own morality. Irving’s writings continued to propagate the...
