In an article about LiveOps in today's Houston Chronicle, there's an interesting story about a few women in Georgia are suing because they believe that they are employees and entitled to a minimum hourly wage. (LiveOps pays by the minute, not the hour and all employees are independent contractors.)

It will be interesting to see how this case plays out. On one hand, it could mean higher wages for home-based contractors. On another, it could mean more companies will be reluctant to hire home-based agents in the future for fear of being sued.

Unless your employer is a discriminating or demeaning jerk, I have also thought it was better to find a new job then haggle for something they weren't able or willing to give.

If you're not making enough money, it's a great time to find a new job. And there are plenty of other work from home opportunities out there.
