if im wrong then tell me but when i went self employed and i went to see my accountant he told me i need to be earing money from more than one person and if the tax man checked me out i need to prove im earning my own money rather than 1-2 people paying me a wage as ur not paying as much NI being self employed u could be asked to pay the a back dated amount of NI to the last time u was empolyed as the tax man would look at it u should be employed if u are going to ask u boss for a better day rate be carefull u DONT want to lose the job u have get on the phone and see if u can find more work
