Model Constructions got a contract to complete a housing project in Atlanta, GA. The foreman, Clint Harper, hired 20 workers to do the work on the housing project. Model Constructions wanted to keep the costs down, so it did not want to hire any support staff for Clint. Clint got the employees to complete all of the necessary tax forms, like the W-4 for withholding, their social security information, and so on, and delivered all of the paperwork to the head office in Buckhead, GA. Every week, Clint would collect all of the time tickets from his workers, sign them, and then deliver them to the head office. On Fridays, he would go back to the head office and collect the checks. He was also responsible for distributing all of these checks to the workers.<\/p>\n
