  1. Hey honey , u r much too young to work for those establishments tahtyou mentioned. They are run by strict labor codes and cannot hire minors. You can mostly stick to ur babysitting and stuff like that .


  2. try looking on craigslist.com

    look in the jobs section for tennesee. its cool that youre so young and taking an itrerest in money.

  3. jobs depend on the owner most owners want older experienced workers others might not care.

  4. This is not harmful and it is legal, go to your neighbours (trustworthy) and ask if they have stuff that the wouldn't mind getting rid of and you set up your own garage sale or have an adult assist you with selling them on ebay.

  5. Try babysitting again or dog walking. You can always get a loto of $ from that if u r responsible and u sound like u are! :)

  6. You should work at a store in the mall, or like clean peoples houses or trying mowing peoples lawns. You can also take care of animals.

  7. Take this into reality; that was an option back in the '80s, but it's kind of dangerous nowadays.

  8. Working in a garden. Roses. Cleaning. Paper route. Office. Selling magazines. On line sales.

  9. From Tennessee too..  Minimum working age is 14 to work at a legitimate business.  Most restaurants won't hire anyone that young, especially now that minimum went up.  I tried to pick up an extra summer job and there wasn't anyone hiring.  You just need to stick with the baby sitting and such.  Sorry..

  10. I would say your best bet is babysitting, or a news paper route.

  11. First of all, small convenient stores, restaurants will definitely not hire an eleven-thirteen year.  Why you ask? Because you need a worker's permit.  And you can only get it when your fourteen(and in highschool, I think) But what you can do, is do yardwork (mowing lawns, weeding) for a fee at your house and your neighbors.  You can also do your chores around the house and ask your parents for a fee. :D

  12. try pet sitting or house sitting for your neighbors or friends or family. i'm always looking for a good pet sitter especially during summer vacations.

  13. it's against the law to hire an 11 or 12 year old. it's called child labor laws. just try doing chores and things for ur neighbors or sumthing

  14. Well you can go to that store and ask what age they hire. Keep looking! :)

  15. Shelby C should get the ten points because she actually answered first. The other person just put the word "edit" in their answer to be first, then typed in something later.

    See if there are any paper routes available in your area.

  16. Where I live you have to be 14 or 15 I think to get a worker's permit and then you can work limited amount of hours a day/week.  Otherwise, once we turn 16 we don't have to get the permit.  I don't think the Dollar General will hire an 11 year old, unless you know the owner.  In my days, I used to do stuff for my aunt who owned a clothing store, like pass out flyers, clean up the store, etc.  My dad would pay me to do stuff at his office, like dust or vacumm (but on the weekends only).  It's tough to make money outside of your family.  I would wash my dad's car, I think I got paid for that.  Sorry I wasn't much help.

  17. Go to local restaurants and see if they will pay you under the table.

  18. you have to be at least 18 with a workers permit to work....other than that 16 or older....the most you can really do right now is a lemonade stand.....sorry....

  19. check your state laws to see at what age a person can work.

    You can volunteer at a young age but if money is what you are looking for, try bagging groceries, babysitting, YMCA, webdesign...

  20. first,you have to think of something that you love to do so     much...then search for places where you can find it .  whatever,if you didn't manage,put your CV on net.

  21. i was 14 and i work in a grocery store near me. if u have friends that can hook u up, they may let u be their assistance for starters. u can also try gardening or  try clothes stores. all u have to do is fold clothes and u get paid decent plus all u need to have is responsibility which i know u have :D

  22. you seem too young to work..

    most places require ppl to be 16, and some are nice enough to allow 15 year olds...

    i dont know what tennesee is like, but how about working for someone on their farm.. tenneesee has farms right?

  23. Try Craig's List at you city.But of w/your parent's permission. Of course.

  24. you have to be 15 to get most jobs... i dont know of any regular jobs that will hire someone that young

  25. well other than the obvious little things nothing ... in most states you can go up to your court house and ask about a work permit that allows younger people than 16 to work with a permit for a certain amount of time... you will have to have a parent sign it i think... but hey try it

  26. do odd jobs like gardening, cleaning cars, gambling, and other stuff like that

  27. literally apply anywhere. they will take an app and just hollachu if they want to hire you. except i think its illegal to hire before 14 but i live in massachusetts so idk if its that way everywhere. you will probably just have to resort to babysitting. ask your neighbors if they will pay you to do yard work. have some friends help you organize a car wash in town, even just a lemonade stand makes some cash since people feel sorry for you! dog walking and working for your parents is good too. CHORES they suck but you will probs have to do them anyway...you might as well get paid even if its like 5$ a week its more than you have right now!

  28. other than what you have mentioned i am unsure....

    but umm i think you have the wrong catagory..

    lol

  29. Pet store coffe shop animal shelter?

  30. You can try mowing people's lawns for money or in the winter shoveling the snow. Stuff like that.

  31. The best way is to find a relative who needs some work done for example your uncle might want his pickup truck washed or something. You could go up to small businesses like corner stores and ask them if they have any work or if they need anything done.
