I pay taxes on my pay before my 401k is taken out. Some one told me that I can pay after the 401k deductions and that counts as my salary. Basiccally that I wouldn't have to pay taxes on the amount I put in my 401k. Is that correct?

Your 401(k) should be a pre-tax deduction for Federal Income tax. There are some limits to that, but I really doubt that you're over them. It might be taxable for FICA and FUTA, but I don't remember off the top of my head. I'll take a look and let you know.
As for state and local taxes, it is non-taxable in the state of PA and the City of Pgh follows the state taxable gross definition.
So pretty much this should be pre-tax for you, just like your section 125 health benefits.
Does your employer do payroll in house, or is someone like ADP printing your checks?

Checked it out in our system. I was wrong about PA, it is taxable for state and local income tax. It is also taxable for FICA and FUTA.
So the only place that you'll see it as a pre-tax deduction is in your Federal Income Tax.

Yeah ADP handles our payroll.
The paper I read says. You may elect to defer a percentage of your pay each pay period. Your taxable income is reduced by the amount you contribute through salary deferral. This lets you reduce your current federal and many state income taxes.
I guess I better talk to HR about this as, I think I'm currently getting taxed on this shit. Don't want to pay more taxes than I have to.

Then they're probably handling your contributions correctly. You can double check it at paycheckcity.com to see if there is a difference.

Yeah i guess I got to see if they are taking 11% of my gross pay or my net pay first and then go from there.

Ok. I think that I have 2 of them, so I can probably give you one. You'll just need to get solder.

Wherever my "box of stuff" is, there may be an iron and some solder in there. It may still be in HS basement.
In a related note, I'm down with gathering up my various boxes of stuff, if yinz want them out of your houses (which I'm sure you do). Most of it will be trashed, but I'd like to look through them first.

Most of the boxes in my attic are just general audio shit. (cables, broken microphones & junk) If someone encounters a box containing one of those ADAT optical cables, that would be awesome. (Or if someone finds it sans box, just as well.)
