[quote=Anonymous]OP, example of what I meant by gig work: https://www.workmarket.com/
There's a link at the very bottom asking if you are an independent contractor. 
What sucks is there are so many layers. Son had a preferred vendor agreement for field services in our region for a global company. Over last year they shed those vendors (no warning, just jobs decreased to a trickle then nothing then an email about changing our business model). They now contract with a company to manage tech contractors. Son's business managed to negotiate work with a 15% rate reduction from what they had with the original client, but after 6 months it was take another 30% off current rate and was told to kick rocks. And then payment is through another vendor so everyone slices the pie before you get it.

But if you're young and don't have business overhead that company still pays $60/hr. 
Just scope out any companies on reddit or somewhere. One they worked with briefly and then no more--low pay, delayed pay, looked for any excuse to apply punitive "fines."
