Ever worked for cash?

[tinfoil]

Did you work for a little less?

 

[Jarod]

yes

 

[tinfoil]

Why?

 

[Jarod]

Cuz I know I got paid. It sucks to have a check bounce or pay a commission on a Credit Card payment

I've worked for cash in the past.
I was paid prevailing rate for the job I did.

 

[Callinectes]

Oh yeah! Still do on occassion, and no, I do not report it. That's why I do it.

(I should have also said that I don't really make enough at it TO report it. At least I think so!)

I think Superfreak got paid in cash when he worked at Chippendale's.

 

[wanderingbear]

What else would you work for?

 

[Rune]

I often pay temps cash. I deduct what they would have paid in taxes from the going rate, since I then have to pay their taxes (having no way to prove I paid them). Either way, only one of us has to pay the taxes. If they work more than a day or two, I stop paying cash.

 

[Billy the Great Khan]

No, I don't reduce my rates for cash payments. I might reduce the cost of a sale a bit, but not more than 5%. But if I'm actually working I charge the same, even if you're paying in guns/gold (both have been accepted as payment before).

Yeah but in a year he only made six dollars - even the IRS wouldn't care.

Another tax-cheating Rightie?

This is how it should be handled.

Odd that the "patriotic" conservatives spend so much time cheating us, the people of America, isn't it?

The times I worked for cash I made more than the typical wage for that work. I knew they weren't paying taxes on me or including me in the workman's comp, so I was still cheaper than a payroll employee.

So you were complicitly committing tax fraud?

Thanks for your candor.
