Fifth, while the right to remove Christine Born from the Kerns’ farm home at will perhaps suggests a de facto right of discharge, this consideration alone is not conclusive, see Geerdes v. J. R. Watkins Co., 258 Minn. 254, 262 , (citation omitted), and alone cannot overcome the weight of the four prior factors.

In determining *51 whether the status is one of employee or independent contractor, the most important factor considered in light of the nature of the work involved is the right of the employer to control the means and manner of performance.” In Geerdes v. J. R. Watkins, Co. 258 Minn. 254, 262 , we noted the difficulty encountered in applying these standards to the facts of each case, but added the following guidelines: “ * * * The distinction between an employee and an independent contractor ma

In the Lindbery case we said ( 266 Minn. 424 , 123 N. W. [2d] 698): “* * * under a given set of facts we cannot justify inconsistent conclusions simply because a common-law action may be involved in one case and a workmen’s compensation claim in another.” Defendant Olson relies heavily on Geerdes v. J. R. Watkins Co. 258 Minn. 254 , 103 N. W. (2d) 641 , but the facts in that case and those in the case now before us are clearly distinguishable.
