This is my second time writing this post because in my frustration of going back and forth from reddit to my first job's paystub page, I closed everything.

    I don't know how to fill in a W4. I am confused and I know I'm an idiot but it's driving me insane because I just want money so I can pay bills. That's it.

    For context, I have two jobs, the second which I just started like, two weeks ago. My first job is retail, and it goes through Dailypay, which allows me to take money after each shift so I can get food, etc. The hours are extremely varied, and I'm paid minimum wage (like 12 dollars) hourly. The official paychecks are bi-weekly. This recent pay period, I got like, 30 dollars.

    This new job that I'm filling in the w4 for has consistent hours and I'm paid more. It's checks are biweekly. When I got hired, they had me do a paper w4, but I was confused and unsure how to even fill it out and the person helping me just told me to figure it out. I even did the irs tax estimate thing and that… only made me more confused.

    The paycheck for this pay period at the new job was yesterday, but I got nothing. I looked at the payroll app thing and it says zero dollars went to my bank account and the entire thing was deducted.

    I am not married. I have that first job I mentioned but I don't know how to proerly fill that in or what to do. I don't have any tax exemptions. Can somebody explain this to me like I'm five?? I just want to make sure I actually get money for these shifts. That's all I want. My head hurts.
