I'm an independent IT consultant (making $50/hourly for roughly
$100,000 a year).  I have consulted the past year just for a single
large company (in Massachusetts), and they are shortly going to cut
off my work (due to lack of work on their part).  Do I get
unemployment compensation despite being an hourly worker?  Thanks.

On the company's payroll, are you classified as an employee or as an
