I think most of this fits this sub but if there somewhere else to go please let me know. I (23 M) am in environmental science and just got a job with a habitat restoration company (kind of like landscaping) at $17 an hour. I’ll be doing a lot of manual labor but eventually will be like an assistant manager. The owner wants me to work as an independent contractor and set up my own LLC, he says this is just how he’s set up his business. This leaves me with a lot of questions.
1) what are the implications of having my own LLC? 2) what will my taxes be like? What can I write off? Laptop , Clothing, or safety gear? 3) he says I should get general liability insurance and maybe switch my car insurance to commercial car insurance even though I should expect to be driving others or materials much 4) when I get the general liability insurance, should I still get something like Aflac 5)Do I still get overtime if I work over 40 hrs
Any and all advice would be appreciated, clearly I’m unsure how to approach this.
