	Are corporate employees obligated to accept payment for their work? Suppose I got hired for a corporate job (engineer, accountant, etc), and didn't want to be paid. Would I get in trouble if, on the first day of work in the HR office, I provided a phony SS number, bank account number, and mailing address? This is just so the money never gets routed to me, and I would not be taxed on money that I never had access to and never wanted or felt I deserved in the first place.
