    Your link says that "contract employee" and "independent contractor" are just different names for the very same thing. And Wikipedia as well as the IRS say that independent contractors and employees are different things. Go figure.


    Yup.

    When dealing with government agencies you often cannot tell the difference between a contractor and employee. It gets muddy. I've interacted with "contracting officers" in the GSA that have been there for years, or even decades. Their email signature line will say contracting officer and GSA, but they are technically contractors if you dig a bit. (don't confuse "contracting" with "contractor" here)
