Most people don’t know the difference between contractor and employee. When I was a contractor I had to remind a manager that was completely overbearing and micromanaging that he is breaking the law
My favorite way of doing that was asking them when I could expect HR to send me the new employee paperwork so I can sign onto the health insurance. Because if they’re going to treat a contractor like an employee, the least they could do is offer employee benefits. And if a manager thinks they’re about to get called into HR to explain why they hired an additional employee without permission, you’d be surprised how quickly their attitude changes.
