I'm not Alissa, but I didn't understand that to be what she was asking. I don't understand what the EOR arrangement means in practice.

AMS is in California, which has its own odd rules about contractors and employees (with a special carveout for Uber, Lyft, and Doordash) but I don't think that's at issue here.
