• holding that there was no evidence that company controlled the time, manner, and method of real estate agent’s work despite the fact that company provided an office, telephone, secretary, and expected the agent to attend regular meetings
• contract describing party as “independent contractor” does not control if at the same time it provides that he shall be subject to any employer rules adopted in future
• no employer/employee relationship even though realty company provided individual with office, telephone and secretary, expected agent to attend regular sales meetings and provided agent business cards with company’s inscription
• “the chief test lies in whether the contract gives, or the employer assumes, the right to control the time, manner, and method of executing the work as distinguished from the right merely to require certain definite results in conformity to the contract.”
