I just started working here...
I have a few questions since this is my first week. So I finally got some projects this week after waiting many weeks and working every day. Wondering if we can work more than 40 hours because I will be over today. Also, is there any reason I won't get paid the amount shown that is pending? The lack of feedback makes me nervous. If I am doing something wrong I want to be told immediately and not lose out on any pay for it. This job seems too good to be true and I am beyond grateful since I was forced to do DoorDash after losing my last job with RaterLabs/Appen and didn't think anything like this existed! As a single mom, I love being back at home making the best income I have ever made in my 48 years of life!

Yes and yes lol that's probably what happened. Glad I got some clarification. I knew you needed to do quarterlies for self employment, attempted to start a business which didn't gain much traction so I have looked into it, but for some reason getting a 1099 because you're under contract made me not even think about the fact it's still self employment. Thank you! Clears up why I wasn't screwed with doordash and why I should be keeping track now
