The recent #BalasoreTrainTragedy in #Odisha has shocked & saddened many people,including those who have served in senior operational positions in the #IndianRailways.
Some feedback we received:

One retired senior board officer said, "I am ashamed of what happened..
@RailMinIndia ImageImageImageImage
We had made so much progress in reducing accidents in recent years, but it seems like we have let our guard down. We need to get back to basics & focus on safety."

Another retired officer said, “Last major accident was in MaldaDivn ERly in Jan 2022.The #Malda derailment showed.. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
that there were cracks in our strategy. We need to be more vigilant & make sure that all safety procedures are followed. Malda happened becoz basics of planning were ignored-while extending run of electric loco, neither Divn, nor Zone nor RlyBd ensured that locomotives will not..

☠️This is cost of doing business, with #EasyPayments. Nobody will go hungry or homeless. Nobody admits guilt. #OrganizedCrime is organized; and profitable.

Gig work flourished and took root during the pandemic; particularly in 2021. Now, in 2022's chaotic economy; merchants, customers and laborers are festering as a direct result of the clearly-exploitative #contractor classification, which codifies #LaborLaundering and #appslavery.
“Sharpening the test to determine who is an independent contractor...makes it easier to identify employees covered by the Act, while recognizing and respecting the entrepreneurial spirit of workers who choose to pursue the freedom associated with being an independent contractor.”

How much money do you have to save before starting as a fulltime #freelancing #contractor / #consultant?

MUCH more than you think.

A thread 🧵🧵
[Forword]

I started my freelancing career in April 2021 and heavily underestimated the amount of money I have to spend for my living AND the business before my first income.

Here's what you have to consider:

1/13
[time frame]

Your first payout happens after:

➡ you land a contract (read on)
➡ you registered taxes and stuff (read on)
➡ remaining time until project start (read on)
➡ 1 month of work +
➡ avg 1 month due date for payment

Thread by @JessicaMeigs (THANK YOU THANK YOU!)

➡️ Hey #entrepreneurs, #TwitterMarketing, and ANYONE who is #selfemployed

‼️EVERYONE should know this information that's being buried in the news cycle:

‼️The PRO Act, or HR 842‼️👎

...…📵🔊 threadreaderapp.com/thread/1366805…
The voting date is scheduled for 03/08! (aka THIS Monday!)

🚨Remember the heavily OPPOSED smack-down that #California imposed on millions of #independentcontractors?

That they are ‼️STILL‼️ fighting? The law that says you cannot even do #Rideshare unless @uber, @lyft, @Grubhub
... EMPLOY you as an official employee of the company. 😱

Even IF they could afford to do that (and these companies have ALREADY said they CANNOT,) you could not:

🔸set your own schedule
🔸where you want to work
🔸or any other #sidehustle - GONE

Not sure if you’re in this 📦?

1/4 Oggi @repubblica torna su #MarioPaciolla (richiamo in prima e tutta p. 17). Molto bene! @luigidimaio resta sollecito e ottima dichiarazione di @sruotolo1. Soprattutto punta il dito su Christian Thompson, capo sicurezza della Missione ONU, ultimo a parlare con MP vivo e che>>>
2/4 avrebbe rinvenuto il corpo. È definito "teste chiave" ma soprattutto quel che è: un #contractor, con un CV tenebroso. L'#ONU non può usare l'immunità diplomatica e DEVE chiarire il ruolo di Thompson. Tre punti: A) queste cose NOI le scrivevamo già 5 weeks ago. Dov'era ed è>>>
3/4 la grande stampa? Perché abbiamo lasciato un mese agli assassini? B) #USAID non è un'istituzione internazionale come l'ONU (qui dico per il SISDE: gnosis.aisi.gov.it/gnosis/Rivista…) ma è da decenni lo strumento di destabilizazzione dell'America Latina del Dipartimento di Stato, con >>>

ATTENTION Home Owners and Real Estate Investor: When working with #Contractors, set your expectations EARLY and have everything in writing before any work starts. Let’s look at some important factors so you all are educated. (THREAD) #30DaysofThreads 01/07
Firstly, I am a licensed #Architect & come w/ contractor experience overseeing construction from small residential projects up to $20mil+ large scale commercial projects. I have been on job sites since 2007. It’s part of my duties to protect safety & welfare of the public. 02/07
Set #Contractor expectations early in the #construction process. This could include the quality of work, progress schedule (when certain phases will be done), & material properties (how items will perform) among others things. These specifics should be included in contract. 03/07
