This still sounds pretty sweet, and I am approching the time where I could make some moves again, but I don't see there if I would need to get my contractors license in HI, and would I need to be carrying my own insurance? I know how 1099's work around here to a limited degree, and I have worked it out with operators here that they hire me on a w4, but only call.me in as needed, and that way I am covered by their insurance, and it's their company performing the work.

How does the W9 work? specifically in HI? I should be able to get my contractors license in CA after March, and that's when my lease ends and I could make the move. Here, the law says that if I am subbing under you, that you can't supply me with ANY equipment or crew. so if that is the case there, then there are quite a few things missing from your requirements... I am asking for specifics because I am really interested.

What would your offer be on a w4?
