Food service. Find a place where you don't have to share tips. Claim 10% of your sales as the tips you made. Walk away with about 30% or more of your tips being tax free. Although the checks will be small, having the cash tips will be great. Look for a short lunch shift at an american style place. 11-4 shift. $80-100 easy.
Make a strict budget too, so when you do have a job you don't get yourself into another one of these predicaments.

Good Luck

waiters dont need to pay taxes like the rest of us?

depends on how many people he claims. they are only taking $30 a week. at the end of the year he'll get most of it back anyways.
idk how you can't live on $340 a week. must be in a lot of debt

what do you mean?( the bold stuff) also why should he get most of it back? up here "anything" payed in making that much would be paid back in full. making

20k a year i was getting back on average 1600 a year in my taxes. thats what i payed in pretty much. i really dont know much about how your guys tax system works.

it means how many dependants he claims. most likely he'll claim 0, so that means he'll get more money taken out per check then if he claims himself or other dependants. the state holds about half your taxes, plus social security, and federal with is usually paid back in full up to 5k.

i understand a bit better now. to my knowledge up here they deduct income tax according to your income. we have different brackets. 0-33,000, and 33,001 to 66,000. and then 66,000 to 100,000, and then 100k+. i have never had dependants, so i am not sure how that affects stuff, but i know this year is the first i'll be in the 33k+ bracket, so we will see how tax season goes next year.

we have brackets too. i think he estimated a little too much taxes being taken out. in the US you can claim yourself as a dependant.

why does a single person need to make 52k a year? maybe texas is different but 50k a year jobs starting off are hard to come by for people without degrees. hell my dad was at Ford's for 30 years and was making $26/hr when he retired after 30 years, but the big 3 isn't hiring anymore //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
