Sub Crews

The crews that aren't on your payroll: the arithmetic that says whether your own crew or a sub crew actually costs you less on a real job, what has to be on paper before anybody rolls, the three times you look at his work without stepping over the line and running his men, how to backcharge a mistake without losing a crew you wanted to keep, and paying subs on the day you said as the cheapest advantage you'll ever buy.

These plays are how we run a shop — they are not legal, tax, or accounting advice. Rules change by state and by contract, so before you act on the legal-sounding parts, run them past your own attorney or accountant. It's your business, and what you do with any of this is your call and your responsibility.
