Part One: -->NEVER<-- take a 1099 job as an employee. 1099 is for independent contractors, like gig jobs.

Part Two: the FMCSA SAFER Web Snapshot shows they are above the national average for out-of-service. (Can you take a hint?)

Part Three: A Google search does not pull up a real web page for the company. They seem to be only on Facebook!

Out-of-Service:

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.

The How to: FMCSA National Consumer Complaint Database

The Where to: Report Safety Violations

In a general sense, the Kalinka issue is in that SAFER WEB database. But that doesn't mean much unless someone looks at it.

So you can be the whistleblower.
