The independent contractor thing is blatantly illegal and against the definition of that employment category, but nobody is willing to get blacklisted from the business in order to spend tons of money in court fighting against a bllionaire's legal team. I'm not even talking about the independent contractor thing -- which, in the case of the WWE, is bullshit because they have non-competes (and, come to think of it, a lot of non-wrestling 1099 work is bullshit because there are non-competes as well) -- but it's all the other insanity between trying allegedly changing the terms, trying to cheat her out of some money, and then having her work tv without any training (...then again, that kinda seems like what they're doing with AEW at times >_>) streamofthesky posted... Andrew Yang (who is a big wrestling fan) repeatedly said if he was part of Biden's admin, he'd specifically investigate WWE and pro wrestling's use of independent contractors and bring the hammer down. And like a wrestler, that was probably just kayfabe. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
