Re: job market Q4 2009

Odd. My experience has always been the exact opposite. Every time I've been talked to about working on 1099 basis, the pay offer has always been the same or less than on a W2. 

Generally I won't touch a 1099 job unless the pay rate is at least 15% higher than the W2 rate. The self-employment taxes can really eat your lunch come April.
