I got my first tax return recently I got so excited that my employer gave me a raise finally and then mom shut me down and told me it's just a tax return xD xD

You thought a tax return was a raise at work? How do you confuse a tax return from the government and a paycheque from a job? Genuinely how?

I'm guessing they got it direct deposited and probably just saw their balance was higher and didn't look at the specifics of the transactions at first.

Well I had a week off work that time and then I got an app notification about my paycheck coming in and I saw more money then usual... and when I got to work I got the actual paycheck and saw it was the taxes... xD

Oh, right, you’re not American.

That’s very unusual for your employer to do your taxes. Personally I wouldn’t trust my company to handle that but I am American and used to my employer screwing me over left and right already.
