Where do you work?

Go ahead Steve. :lol:

You might get tag-teamed by both us Steves on this one. Bwahaha tag team.

As for the check, that sounds about right (these are estimated):

82 hours @ $7.75 /hr = About $635
15 hours @ $11.63 /hr (time and a half) = About $174

Total = $809
Less 20% for taxes ($161)
Grand Total = $648

So give or take certain percentage based off of your state taxes and what you claim. Obviously, claiming yourself will decrease the amount withheld as opposed to claiming independent (0) but will decrease your tax year refund amount.
 
Jeezes, you guys are lucky with your taxes. Then again, we get free health care...

Almost half of my paychecks go to taxes.

ok wait, would it be "80 hours" then 17 hours overtime at time and a half at $11.63?

Word; we have less taxes but basically if you don't work full-time here, you don't have medical insurance. Due to me being a full-time student and working only part-time, I'd have to come up with $98,732,984 a month for insurance.

I want to say that claiming 1 is about 17% and claiming 0 is between 20% and 21%, unless they raised the taxes and I forgot about it. Though, taxes are supposed going to get raised because of the second stimulus that is supposed to be awarded. I think it's all bullshit....I should have went into economics.

Not necessarily, it really depends on the company's policy of the term "payweek". The 40 hours HAS to be within one company payweek otherwise it won't count as overtime.

Edit: To give you a better picture, companies that have pay periods bi-weekly through the 15th and the 30th are more susceptible to this because the first could fall on a Friday where the hours will not be carried over to the following week. 8 hours would be accrued for that week and the following week would have your standard 40 hours. In other words, it's a great way for companies to get out of paying overtime (i.e. great way for companies to fuck you).

Free health care.


USA - Getting tax return which probably wouldn't be enough to cover most of any medical bill in the US, depending on how severe the injury or sickness is.

Canada - Not getting the tax back but if you might have any type of major illness or problem it's somewhat covered.


Give me the free health care over the taxes!
 
I could use some free health care right about now, due to me being such a fucking hypochondriac. I have this hard lump near my shin that has been there for several months now but it doesn't hurt. It happened a couple weeks or so after the last time I sparred and based off of my research, it's a trauma reaction. To self medicate myself, I am going to proceed to ice it every night. But, like I said, it would be nice to find out EXACTLY what it is.

Also, I would like to find out why I'm tired all the time. I probably need to go back to a psychologist for this diagnosis.
 
I've been thinking about going back to my psychologist because I enjoyed his company. He had some AWESOME TOYS. For reals this guy had some of the coolest, scientific crazy ass toys that were just amazing. I would go back just to play with them.

Lessee...I lose 27% of my paychecks which includes both taxes and insurance. I expect to get about an $800 tax return. I guess the question is how my insurance (Kaiser Medical, Aetna Dental, VSP) stacks up against the Canadian national healthcare system.
 
Canadian health care is basically good for any surgery or injury. It doesn't cover any dental.

Here some dental is covered, up to $600 if you apply for some assistance thing in case your work doesn't cover it but in Ottawa EVERYTHING is covered. It varies from each municipality. It's good for surgery but it's also a longer wait list and you need a doctor's referral note before seeing a specialist... and if the doctor is a fucking Jewish piece of shit, like mine, then you get fucked over and don't see the right specialist until the problem is a lot worse. But, a sometimes crappy health care system is still better than none at all/one I can't afford.
