1099 Contractor

I was offered a 1099 position, they are saying the work
schedule is M-F 9am-6pm but there is no base pay or
hourly pay. It's commission only. Are they allowed to
force me to work on a set schedule without paying
me? There is also 5 days of unpaid training. Is this
right or very wrong? I always thought you make your
own schedule as a 1099 contractor etc. Should I take
this position?

I wouldn't take a "scheduled" job without a base. I'm 1099 and one of the key benefits is I do what I want when I want.

Definitely a hard pass. Being able to set your own schedule is one of the perks when it comes to 1099 positions.

wolfmaster closed Travel Visa Filing Startup for $5k to the IT / Security / DevOps department
Okay, This was a Boring Deal & I offered them to signup and gave them the flexibility to start at their convenience. Since it was a startup, cash crunch and all sort of things, I had to be like oka...
Say congrats!
