No Tax on Overtime 🤦‍♂️
Translation: You still get taxed. But hey, someday… maybe… the IRS might slip a little something back into your pocket.
Here’s how it actually works:
They tax your overtime now.
You bust your ass all year.
At tax time, IF you qualify, Uncle Sam gives you a refund like he’s tossing scraps to the peasants. 🥖
And don’t worry — it’s capped, it expires in 2028, and if you make “too much” (aka worked too hard), you don’t even qualify.
So instead of “no tax on overtime,” it’s really:
“Loan us your sweat now, we’ll think about reimbursing you later.”
It’s like working 60 hours a week, and when you finally collapse, the government walks over and says:
“Don’t die yet. You’ll get your life jacket… in April.” 🛟
So tell me—who else thought this was gonna hit different? Or am I the only idiot who thought “no tax” meant… you know… no tax? 🤡
