WELL FOLKS ITS SO OVER FOR TONY. IT HAS BEEN DECIDED, I WILL NOT BE RESUMING PAINTING. And the reason will likely not surprise you. SO, while reapplying for insurance, my old insurance company wouldn't cover me without a payroll (work comp) audit (I had switched coverages and pulled a new policy with GC coverage) and apparently that spooked them so they wouldn't insure me. I was like well, well, well that can't go well. So I switched providers and applied for a new one. They requested an audit, i talked to first insurance company and they said they closed the file because audit not required. Well, second insurance company started playing hard ball and demanded a full payroll audit for ALL operations (the past 4 years). Now, idk if you remember but I had some crews that were, well, lets just call them temps. But, do to new work comp requirements it turns out those "temps" are no longer allowed to be classified as temps...And, well, i may or may not have paid those temps over 100k over the course of like 2 years. And well, well, well Tony DOES NOT need to get audited and end up with work comp payroll liability on over 100k worth of helper wages...SOOOOOOO THE PAINTING DREAMS ARE DEAD. Unless i want to cough up 10-15k...which i can't because you know BEER STORE. Anyway, jokes on me, cheap labor isn't "cheap" anymore and apparently insurance companies won't believe me that I'm just a single dude painting apartments...SOOOOOOO No more painting for Tony. Which, tbf I fucking hated running that business anyway and was just tired of beer store poverty wages but IT WOULD SEEM A NEW PLAN IS NEEDED TLDR: Tony did a sneaky, but it wasn't so sneaky and now I can't pay the back premiums.

@Tony "do you have a loicense for that, m8?" hits hard and is tiresome. Anyhow, please don't throw a putsch in the beer store after an unsuccessful painting career.

@vriska Yes, lets crush small business owners so only the corporations can employ the masses. The other side of it, is that we just were simply not big enough to run legitimate payroll. You need minimum revenue of probably 50-75k/month to have a fully compliant labor force. But thats fine, we'll just let big corporations pay 15/hr and keep everyone living in poverty.

@Tony If you can't afford to pay your employees minimum wage you can't afford to own a business my brother

@vriska That's the liberal ideolog version of it. The cost for "compliance" for employee is roughly 1000/month. Sorry i don't have a rich family to front me quarter million dollars so I can hire 3 laborers for 3 months. All these law do is push the barrier for entry onto rich people who can afford it. Your attitude that "hurr durr let small business die because they're poor" creates the exact corporate hell scapes you hate. Btw, i paid people roughly twice as much as they would make working for the union.

@Tony it's simply the free market. That's how capitalism works. If you're not profitable enough you don't get to run a business.

@Tony @vriska you should've alleged that you would call ice on your employees in case they needed insurance

Are there any exemptions in your state for not having employees? Can you just say you'll be painting without a crew?
