@tutordotcom@insidehighered And it's imperative that these online supports be well-compensated for their work, not drowned in unsustainably high tax bills every year just because @tutordotcom likes to mischaracterize its employees as "independent contractors"
@tutordotcom If only #tutordotcom would show some love for their tutors with fair wages, software that doesn't break every third session, and an end to "contractor" status so that we don't end up owing thousands in taxes every year! 👀
If you work for @tutordotcom, you should join us in a one-day #strike this December 10th on Sunday. #tutordotcom will no doubt be very busy around that time, so why not show them our value by letting them try to get by without us #workers?
Did you know that if you reside in Louisiana, your work is more worthless than that of a California resident? It is if you work for @tutordotcom! Thanks to their "cut costs above all" philosophy, TDC worker pay varies by state!
Worried that your tax bill will be too low next year? Worry no longer, because @tutordotcom only hires "independent contractors!" Apply now if you want to pay enough on Tax Day that you're effectively working for less than your state's minimum wage! #TutorDotCom
For this #TutorTuesday, we should understand that if we work for a company directly with a significant amount of oversight and direction, we should all be considered employees of that company.
Companies like @tutordotcom like to skirt employment laws.
Fellow tutors, since @tutordotcom has only been more and more demanding of us with basically no increase to our benefit, many of us are starting to organize on Reddit. We're discussing actions we can take to improve our situation with the company. https://t.co/7Zx3Guz967
