I think quite a few people when they are young switch jobs until they find one they enjoy doing.
I was the same way, Then I found a job that I liked doing and have done the job for 35 years

No this is not normal employee behavior but if you have personnel reasons for these life changing decisions then only you and your close net family that know weather or not this is in your best interest will know . my own opinion begs to differ it is important you build up a good work ethic re pore with you and your employer it is also important to show stability at the work place but if all you do is done properly two week notices and so forth leaving for good purposes such as increases in salary or position but if it's done simply because your not happy about scheduling job assignments boss was telling you ,you need improvement? or thing to that nature which are said daily it gets old and then eventually you will not be want at any location because you will be considered unreliable .be careful be smart get your act together for your own good , good luck darling.

no, and all of those jobs are basically dead-end minimum wage. Don't you want more out of life? Go to any kind of schooling, nurses's aide, RN, cosmetology, and ask about getting a loan which you can pay back after you graduate and get a job. Be sure you take courses that lead to a job, look at the employment ads in your area to see what jobs are hot.

Yes, however the IRS limits the number of W-2 Forms they will accept with Telephone Filing your 1040. Too many W-2s must be filed with the 1040 short or perhaps long form. One year helping my daughter, IRS advised me 25 W-2's was just a bit too many for Telephone Filing. I Think they call it E-Zee 1040. What ever, don't forget should your Earned Income be below a certain amount, you are ENTITLED to RECEIVE a CREDIT For example a family with two children and NO Earned Income just has to file and receives a credit (cash of course sent to you by check) in the amount of $4,536.00. Majority of filers don't realize this Credit is there just for the asking. Asking is by filing. For example should you be living in New York State as I, at least for a few more months---a family filing both NY and federal tax return, without earning a penny +/- are ENTITLED to $5,897.
Don't believe me just call the IRS at 1-800-IRS-1040 or the local IRS telephone number listed in your telephone directory.
My friend, you asked, is it normal, Yes, that's why the federal government has set up this Earned Income Credit to help you.----It's there----take advantage of it.

No and it looks bad on your resume. It sounds like you need to get a better type of job. You may need to go back to school for some training for a more professional job that you can stick with long term.

Why are you switching jobs? Changing jobs because of school hours or more money is totally reasonable. Is there a pattern?
