CSPAM, you know how, if you work in a state with income taxes and live in a state without one, you’re able to deduct these from your liability when you file in tax season? Well, several companies in MA decided to change everyone to “remote workers” to give people in N.H. a break and make tax season easier. Not only did MA pass a law saying you can’t do this, but they’re also saying you can’t deduct these days on your taxes next year. NH is close to filing suit about this, because 85k people are potentially effected.

Pillowpants posted:CSPAM,  Mah tax avoidance scheme has been foiled! Curse you, Massachusetts!  Seriously, just make your reporting office state NH, NV, FL, SD, TX, WY, AK, WA or TN (the states that either have no income tax at all or don't tax earned income) if you want to avoid the telecommuter rule. *taps head*

I don't have to worry about state income taxes since I live in Florida. The downside is I live in Florida.

forced remote work sucks and is anti-worker unless your employer gives you money to rent and furnish another place that is not your house.

There was a while back there were a lot of jobs being posted here for work from home call centre jobs. Which honestly kind of sounded fine at first, I'd done plenty call centre work where I was spending 3 hours per day commuting and it was driving me bonkers. But then look into it and they are all "you need to provide your own computer and phone line and they both have to be dedicated exclusively for work" and then you need to buy your headset and for a job that paid £9 an hour you're looking at a spare room, a spare computer, extra line rental, all for a barely above minimum wage gig. And with only something like 20 guaranteed hours a week, plus maybe more ot maybe not why would I know I'm just the employer? Absolutely rotten swindle. Not having to commute would rule but all the rest of it can gently caress right off, you can buy me a computer if you want me using a dedicated computer for your poo poo pay job Meanwhile they are saving on office space, saving on equipment, on staff like cleaners and security, saving on even little things like subsidised canteen. Just abysmal from the workers perspective and I'm assuming even chatting to colleagues to organise a union would be near impossible in the virtual office forkboy84 has issued a correction as of 17:12 on Aug 10, 2020 |
