How can I find a job that pays in cash?

Question

I don't know if i should just go in a store and ask if they pay in cash because i think it will be weird.

Answer 1

uhm... you'd probably have to go to a job agency and ask for a job that pays in cash. far as i know they all pay w/ paychecks. What's wrong w/ checks btw?

Answer 2

what you are asking is illegel if you don't pay taxes.

Answer 3

the only way they would is if it was under the counter. but that can get employers in trouble cause deductions cannot be made. just do babysitting or lawn mowing

Answer 4

And against the law! I'm sure you would never do anything against the law. LOL

Answer 5

depending on your age, landscapers will pay in cash under the table to you also dont pay taxes on it

Answer 6

I know of several options....prostitute, stripper, drug dealer, ticket scalper, etc.

Answer 7

in restaurants you get CASH tips.

Answer 8

Well, I think I know why your asking and I dont mind the reason. But most places only pay by check. Reason being its far more convienent for them. If you truly need to be paid in cash contract jobs are about the only ones that do. However, I will mention that if you are paid by check there are "quiet" ways to turn that check into cash. Money mart is the greatest example of this. One piece of ID is all you need and you walk out the door 5 mins later with cash.

Answer 9

get a job as a server, or work in somewhere like a pizza place. Most of the time cash is the means of pay.

Answer 10

hang out in front of the home depot...you'll get a cash only job....

Answer 11

you can be a prostitute jk

try small jobs

Answer 12

A few jobs that pay in cash are, bus boys or cleaners of the restaurant, who clean up tables after a table is finished with. These jobs are payed by the hour of 7-8 dollars, and my brother who does this makes 45 dollars in cash for a day. Also, you may look on google for career searching, or find jobs on google. Most jobs are not payed under the table, but for example an ice cream salesman, or a person who sells objects for a non-franchise organization may get payed with cash, or under the table. Good luck.

Answer 13

asking upfront if they pay in cash

Answer 14

Just request for cash when they tell you that you can have the job. Make up some excuse like the bank banned you for being rude and you currently have no bank account, so therefore you need to be paid in cash. I dont know, just an idea. xD

Answer 15

Go to pubs, bars and cafes and ask....more likely they will than a store... :-)

Answer 16

thats against the law. all the rest of us have to pay taxes so what makes you so special that shouldnt have to?

Answer 17

well you would have to be a bar tender, baby sitter, waiter or something like that.  

Answer 18

Answer 19

If you're looking for something temporary, you can cut yards, wash cars, paint houses, or do some small carpentry work. I know sometimes, I pay cash, and for people (caretakers), who care for my mother, I sometimes pay cash. Just a few options here. Otherwise, most employers are interested in income tax returns, legalities, and they pay with checks. Some construction (small business owners) pay cash. You just have to ask. All you will get is a no, and you won't get hurt.

Answer 20

Don't go in and ask that.  You'll just seem very unprofessional and inexperienced.  Any job that is going to pay you cash - or under the table - is shady.  Think about it.  No taxes.  Good for you, but It may catch up with you later and the company.  You never know.  Even waiters/bartenders have to say how much tips they made, so the proper tax can be deducted from their pay checks.  

If you really want to be paid cash every time you work, the best kind of work would be somewhere you get tips.

Answer 21

Many jobs that pay in cash only are illegal jobs.  The penalties to both the employer and the employee if either is caught can be quite ..... drastic and unpleasant, how's that?  And then you'll have to cough up the state, federal, and FICA taxes that weren't withheld from your paycheck, along with penalties (anywhere from 10% to 25%) and interest.

And if you're trying to avoid paying child support, it gets really ugly when you get caught working "under the table" like that.
