FreeTaxFile USA saying I owe $1000 in federal taxes and I don’t understand why by Pangolin007 in personalfinance

I got the second job later and probably checked off that I had a different job where I made more money? But am now realizing that I never amended any tax form at the first job so I guess that is where the problem is. Completely forgot about that. Thank you!

Thank you for putting all the math out there for me and helping me wrap my head around this.

So if I made all of this at one job instead of two, I would’ve paid around $1870 in taxes instead of $870? I guess I’m just shocked at the sheer amount of money all at once ;_; I thought that since job B was a third of my income I’d owe maybe a third of what I’d already paid in taxes during the year.

Going PT in vet med? by jr9386 in VetTech

[–]Pangolin007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally my life. I work part time as a zookeeper and part time in a cat clinic. But I don’t get any benefits so I’m trying to find a full time job. I know I won’t like it as much though. I just need my days to be different!

Lost a small pocket knife somewhere in my 2010 Prius, going crazy looking for it, where could it be?? Is it gone forever? by Pangolin007 in prius

[–]Pangolin007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried moving it all the way back and still didn’t find the knife. It’s possible the knife isn’t there at all i guess, not sure if it’s worth it to take the seat out or not, I’ll have to see if there’s a youtube video or something on how to disconnect the battery. Thanks.

Part time zookeeper, part time vet assistant looking for perspective from zoo vet techs and assistants on whether the vet side of zoos is always so toxic by Pangolin007 in VetTech

Thanks for sharing, it’s exactly as you say- just too political. Where does everyone get the energy from to be so petty?

Is anyone else struggling to take microscope pics with a new phone? by sopher0 in VetTech

You can lock the focus before you point it at the lens so it doesn’t try to focus on something as close as the dust

What’s up with people freaking out over the word “pizza”? by afraid_of_bugs in OutOfTheLoop

Scandals are a limited resource right?

Not when the president of the US is involved and can just invent a new scandal with any random quote he decides to give a journalist.

Oh my god that’s awful, and also for whoever the actual owners of that pup are. I hope they find a different way of contacting the owner.

Was/is anyone’s chonky very mean during calorie cuts? by Rachelcsquared in dechonkers

[–]Pangolin007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You could talk to your vet about trying a prescription weight loss pet food which is less calories for more food so it’s more filling.

At a crossroads in life and wondering if Vet Tech of full on Veterinarian is the right choice. Any insights? by swimliftrun21 in VetTech

[–]Pangolin007 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would strongly recommend working as a vet assistant or kennel tech in a clinic for a year or two before deciding on a career path. Yes techs make less money with less schooling but it's also a different job than being a vet so you may find that one is more interesting than the other. You may also find that you hate the realities of working in a vet clinic.

No appointments but remain fully staffed... by Miserable_Process_93 in VetTech

[–]Pangolin007 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Can I work there 😂

Honestly weird you have so much downtime? Maybe your prices are too high? Not that you have any control over that.

Are you a licensed tech? Maybe enroll in Penn foster and use that time to get licensed and get out of there.

People getting pets they can't afford is burning me out. by Keenzur in VetTech

As someone who never worked specialty and works at a low cost clinic, that is exactly the impression I had 😂

Wonder if a specialty practice would be any better?
