How much do you think a 14 year old makes in a hour at a real job???

Question

is it like 6.50$ a hr???

or is it more???

just want to know!

Answer 1

Unless hired by a family member and overpaid (yay for nepotism) -- probably minimum wage, which I think is currently $5.85 an hour, minus taxes and other withholdings.  14-year-olds rarely have much if any job experience, attention span, and have tremendous work disadvantages due to child labor laws; so they're not very useful to businesses, thus don't get paid much, if hired at all.

Answer 2

i don't think is legal for someone to earn 6.50$ an hour it is actually 7.50$ an hour for a real job

Answer 3

It isn't really fair but probably minimum wage in Virginia. If you can find a better job you may get paid more, but it is hard to find a good job at the age of 14, I know since I can't find one except babysitting.

Answer 4

it is almost never more than minimum wage which is diffrent in diffrent states. i know in california its like 7 something

Answer 5

prob bout $6.00

Answer 6

More than likely at your age minimum wage is what they will be paying you unless you have some type of skill or you are hired with special circumstances. Could you make more? Probably, you would just have to do some looking. Where I was working the kids would be hired at minimum wage and be subjected to extreme heat, cold, and other weather factors. Most of them went to the other side of the parking lot to the burger joint made more money and did not have to deal with horrible weather conditions.
