Peg the hours through the plank
A weekly hour limit is the trenail. Extra work with no peg wanders off the plank.

Extra work stays when leftover hours are pegged through the plank
A trenail fastens two planks so a hull does not crawl. Trenail applies that to extra income: leftover hours, a real rate and a weekly record are pegged first, so added work stays instead of sliding off the week.
Peg the hours
A weekly maximum, bored before new work arrives, including unpaid search.
Peg the rate
Subtract fees, unpaid time and tax. That diameter is what actually holds.
Peg the record
One sheet a week: payments, costs and set-aside, held off the dashboard.

Peg the rate before the drive
Headline pay is the peg in the bucket. Fees, unpaid time and tax decide whether it holds the plank.

A weekly peg of records
One sheet a week is the peg that keeps payments, costs and set-aside from sliding apart.

Offers that skip the trenail
Kits, unpaid training and urgency skip the peg. They sell a plank that is not fastened to pay.

Signs an offer needs a second look
- A fee to start A kit or paid training is a sale, not a peg through paid hours.
- A fixed income figure Exact pay without costs is a claim, not a measurement.
- Pressure to decide now Urgency exists so the diameter of costs is never checked.
- No legal name With no identifiable firm, a payout has no plank to sit on.
