You are considered an employee if you:
Meet the requirements in §826;
Solicit orders for merchandise on behalf of another person or firm as your principal activity;
Obtain your orders from businesses whose primary function is the furnishing of food and/or lodging (e.g., wholesalers, retailers, contractors, hotel and restaurant operators); and
Sell merchandise that is bought for resale or use as supplies in your customer's business operations.
"Full-time" means that you work primarily for one person or business. It does not matter how much time you spend on the job.
Manufacturers representatives and multiple-line salespersons that work for a number of firms are usually not considered employees.
