I(16F) currently have a job at a small cafe near my high school but I was looking into getting a second job at a fast food place(i.e Mcdonalds/Whataburger) near where I live. I wanted to know if this is legal for me as a minor and how the financial aspect works because my current job does the taxes for me?also do i have to tell my employers that I work two jobs?

You can have as many jobs as you want, limited by the hours you’re allowed to work as a minor in school by state law (which is for both jobs combined, not each individually).
You don’t have to tell your employers about your other jobs. But when your availability for one job is impacted by your obligations to another, they might find out, and might decide you can’t dedicate enough of your time to their job and decide they don’t want or need you as an employee anymore.
Taxes are largely the same. You’ll get two W-2s (or however many) instead of one.
