  1. I just hired a 14 yr old boy to do yard work, lifting (for me) grunt work and doing odd cleaning jobs, etc.  Putting out the trash, sweeping up the litter, raking & putting leaves in the trash cans, using our power washer to wash our porch, steps & lawn furniture, etc.  Since it's kind of rough & dirty work, I asked the closest grammer school to find anyone who wants to work this summer for me.  A 14 yr old can't work legally & the State's  minimum wage is $7.25/hr, I offered $9.00 /hour because a "clean-up company" would charge much more.  For that, I expect a good job & effort but not ridiculous hard work.  This past week, he worked 9 hrs & I have an envelope here with $81.00 for his first week.  Now, older kids don't want to do "dirty" work with their hands but my neice is working in an ice cream store at the mall - she has to use her mom's car to get there ($ for gas), scrub counters, cases, tables & drains, etc & for that she gets minimum wage which is $7.25/hr.  Look around your neighborhood & see if there are any older people, single moms, etc who could use help with their house work, yards, kids, etc.  A lot of young girls do housework for $ for friends and family.  Offer your services - people can't read your mind to see you want to work.  And don't be afraid of so-called manual labor which is the kind of help that single women, elderly people, etc. need.  Hope it helps you.  My 14 yr old person will help me clear out the cellar, hang up Christmas decorations & take them down because I don't want to climb ladders.  My son will also show him how to use the weed-wacker, lawn mower, use weed killer sprays, cut down branches.  Just because you never did it before doesn't mean you can't learn how --always be available & always show that you want to learn How to do a good job.  And, ask questions ;  how, when & where, etc.    Good luck.
