But an uber is completely different. You claimed that your home is your office - but is it really? This is a known thing? Cabbies all declare their office as their homes? and get to bill even when they aren't on the clock with a client in the cab?
Cabbies are W2 employees with an office location where they pick up and drop off their cars. Cabbies work like employees, Uber drivers work like contractors. The delineation is pretty clear.
A cabbie isn't working until they've clocked in at work and has to be paid whether or not they have customers. Uber is contract work and you are "looking for work" from the instant you start, wherever that is.
Huh - that's not what I've ever understood - what's the whole medalian thing then? I've heard of cabbies having their own medalians... or renting one.. in the renting one situation I could see the clock punching you mention...
You think normal taxi drivers are paying $700K of their own money to get a license, and then buying a special, expensive taxi cab on top of that? Those medallions all but guarantee that you can't operate a cab unless you are employed.

Back in the days when my wife and I shared one car. She would take our daughter to the babysitter and go to work. I would go to work via bike, bike+train/bus for long distance and train/bus during winter.
