Yeah, nope. I did something similar as one of the shifts at a manufacturing plant. I called it the hell shift - two day time 8s and then two overnight weekend 12s. The ‘benefit’ was three days off but the fact was that your sleep rhythm was screwed for the six weeks you were on that shift, by then end you didn’t know if you were coming or going.

>if you're doing grass cutting for someone under the table (not a real employee), how do you properly file those taxes

"Under the table" means that the money that is changing hands isn't reported to any government entity, which is generally not legal. If you start jumping though hoops to pay taxes on this type of pay, it's no longer under the table.

I don't know why people can't seem to give you a straight answer. PA State Income Tax is levied at 3.07%.

If you expect more than $8000 of PA taxable income in the year that won't be subject to employer withholding you are required to file estimated taxes quarterly. This may or may not apply to you depending on your revenue and expenses. https://revenue-pa.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/246/~/who-should-make-estimated-payments-for-personal-income-tax%3F

You may or may not be able to qualify for Tax Forgiveness: https://www.revenue.pa.gov/TaxTypes/PIT/TaxForgiveness/Pages/default.aspx

Good luck.
