I am very new to the situation that I am going to describe to you and need some advice on whether or not it is legit. I recentely left a job at an auto repair facility in New york state that I was at for about 8 years to go back to a previous employer to work. Here is the deal though at the new job. I recieve a 50 percent cut on all jobs performed by me at this facility. Parts and labor. I am there on a daily basis and perform all work on both his and my own customers but buy all parts under his accounts. I regularly try to promote business and am in charge of diagnosing problems, estimating jobs and discussing problems with customers. Who and where I get parts from is entirly up to me and I can charge more or less than normal depending on circumstances. I work out of his shop but furnish all of my own tools including some big $ tools not normally supplied by your average "Employee". I pay all of my own taxes based on what I made.(My half). No deductions are made by the owner. If a job goes bad or comes back with a problem, I fix it and share the loss. Parts and labor. I also contribute to some of the shop expenses.. Question here is, Am I a percentage partner? Individual contractor, Or just an employee with a big pay check awaiting for a visit from the IRS? Thanks to all who reply ... P.S There is no insurance or workers comp payed on me either.
