System.out.println("\\ Please enter the number of hours you worked ==>");
hrsWorked = in.nextInt();


System.out.println("\\ Please enter your pay rate ==> $");
payRate = in.nextFloat();

grossPay = payRate * hrsWorked;

taxAmt = (grossPay >= 500) ? grossPay * taxRate2 : grossPay * taxRate1;

netPay = grossPay - taxAmt;

System.out.println( "\\ " + userName + " you said you worked " + hrsWorked + " hours at $" + payRate + "\\");
System.out.println("which means you earned a gross amount of $" + grossPay + " \\");
System.out.println("and you paid $" + taxAmt + " in taxes\\");

You should import java.util.*; at the top, and capitalize the Scanner class:

Scanner in = new Scanner( System.in );

A detail is that the scanner needs to be closed once you're done with it:

in.close();
