    but she may have explicitly negotiated that (used to be an independent contractor).

    Or she's a chad that just says it and everyone assumes it was explicitly negotiated.

    Who's gonna check? lol

      Lol, at my old work your manager didn't know the details of your contract. I think it was a strategy to reduce pay in the long term, but it let my coworker claim she was on a remote contract for like 4 months before anyone noticed.

        Yeah exactly. And most managers also don't care enough to check them or know the details. Really all they care about is whether work gets done or not and whether their lives are being made easier or harder by a particular employee. You can get away with anything as long as the perception is that you are a net-positive to their life being easier and the work getting done.
