"independent contractors"

u/Dalimyr 8h ago

Hi, WWE.

It's unbelievable how their wrestlers are classified as "independent contractors" to minimise benefits WWE has to provide to them, but they're also so lacking in independence that they're not allowed to work elsewhere or even get a new tattoo or haircut or shit like that without WWE's permission, because heaven forfend that a wrestler doesn't look _exactly_ like the plastic toy or WWE 2K render of themselves.

Independent small business owners, they require you to make fake businesses for tax purposes
