Working three jobs right now that still have my nights off. Kinda looking for fourth for some nights during the week.

Tax wise is there a limit of jobs a person can have?

What is done differently? If anything?

yeah i dont think there is a limit to how many jobs you can have

only thing i would watch out of is taxes cause lets say you work 3 jobs a day for 2 hours each each company will take out very little taxes for your bracket your in but with the 3 together you could be in a higher tax bracket and end up owing at the end of the year

Well basically my gf left me and instead of feeling sorry for myself and being all sad I figured I'd work my ass off and get myself setup hehe.

There's stuff I want to do and stuff I want that I am now willing to work my ass off to achieve hehe.

This, working 3 jobs making 20k each only taxes you at a low tax braket, combined you are at 60k, much higher tax braket = owe the government at the end of the year.

Well once is only every few weeks but is worth my while. One is mon fri and the other sat sun.

One is paid cash.

One barely ever pays me but still worth it

And full time job isn't amazingly lucrative hence why I have two other jobs. Kinda want to fill my night hours.

I worked 4 jobs last year for about 6 months. It was great to do all that but I felt like I never had any personal time.

When tax time came I got hit pretty hard though.

if you want to save being hit with additional taxes, remember that your employers each only deduct the % based on how much (or little) you make with them alone
combined the deductions should be higher, so you'll owe the difference come tax time
to avoid the sting, add to you original new employee tax form (T?) on the back of page, which instructs your employer to take an additional amount for deductions
for example, if you stipulate that $20 per paycheck be added to you deductions, then by tax time you will fill that gap
dig! :)

6 they'll call you to verify your SIN# hasn't been compromised :) Guess how I know :lol:

Otherwise - taxes are a bitch with that many T slips, but nothing changes...

Cash is cash - do what ya gotta do - payroll is quantity over quality when your young... I lived on staff discounts when I was young...

As someone mentioned, go travel a bit, will forget about your ex real fast. I travelled Europe when that happened to me, and got over the ex pretty fast, as you get to populate your brain with so much new stuff, and meat great people along the way. This is assuming you are working to kill time and actually have some cash saved up

For the most part I'm just working to get caught up with bills, and pay off both my cars so I can have more room to play with my money.

One of my jobs is done in March :( Since they aren't renewing the lease so my three will become two unless I can find a fourth so that it will remain three hehe.

make sure you put money aside because if each job they are deducting your tax at the lowest bracket, at the end when all of them add up you will go over. your tuition tax credit might help to decrease but you won't see the big tax return. something to keep in mind.
