Hey everyone! I live in the state of Michigan, and I am going to turn 14 soon. (14 is the legal age in my state to get a job.) My mom said a bagger at a grocery store would be good, but I think I could do a bit better... My grades are A's-B's (I have never gotten any lower than a B in my whole life) I am good with people, I am outgoing, I pick things up fast, the whole shabang! :P Anyway... I really want to get about 1,000$ to give some to my friend because his family is in big debt right now, and his dad left his mom with a part time job, 2 children, and a non-selling house. His dad still lives in that house too! I am going to give him the money for a new computer. He wanted one, but when his dad left, his mom said he has to stick with his 12 year old one. He is insecure about having a "Cheap" one so I was going to lend him 500$ to buy a new one, and maybe buy myself a Ps3? Anyway, in your answer DO NOT ANSWER WITH ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:

*Ps3 Sucks

*Don't Give Him The Money

Etc. Etc.

I only want you to tell me what some good jobs for me would be. Thanks =]

  1. Your options are kind of limited, even though 14 is the legal working age.  Bagger at grocery store would probably be one of your best bets, but it's probably going to pay peanuts.  Other than that, you'd probably be best at mowing lawns/baby sitting/shoveling chicken c**p at a farm..etc etc.  Of all the jobs you could get at 14, bagging is probably going to be the most glamorous.  Keep in mind that you are in school, and there are child labor laws which will really restrict your availablility to work.  And don't forget that school needs to come before work.  You seem proud of your grades, make sure you keep on working at those.  Making money at 14 years old isn't the most important things, no matter how altruistic your goals.  Good luck-that's awfully kind of you to want to help your friend.  Keep that up through life.


  2. Even if 14 is the legal working age in your state, it will be almost impossible to find a business that will hire you.

  3. well i mean u cud alwals sell crack. if you dont smoke more than u sell u cud make a fortune..

  4. You can either do what your mother said and be a bagger or maybe a stocker at a grocery store. You could also check out a fast foodplace.
