Do they take taxes out of your check even if you only make 2 cents?

I just went to work for my one day a week and clocked in and then when I went to check the schedule I noticed that I didn't suppose to work.. so I clocked out with 1 minute of work time under my belt. ..heh.

Anyways..I calculated that I should make about 2 cents on my next check (I have no other days this week). So I was wondering how do they split that up for the taxes needed to take out of it? Mainly, would I have atleast 1 cent remaining? Would I get my full 2 cents since it's so low of an amount?

Update:

No, I'm not "wrong" .. I was on the schedule initially which is why I went in to begin with.. and once I clocked in I saw they had changed the schedule (for whatever reason) and so I clocked out.

Update 2:

^It's not like I need the couple of cents.. heh.. I was just merely curious how they went about things like that.

Thanks tro for answering. Much help.

    You are wrong. If you are not supposed to work, you are not supposed to clock in. Even though you lock in, they will erase this from their system.
