  1. i dont think so.


  2. tutoring, volunteering always opens doors to paying jobs (TRUST me. thats how i got my first job), paper route. im sorry but at 14 its really limited. 16 is different. just remember to get your worker's permit. thats all i can think of legally lol.

  3. Drug Dealing, Stabbing, Granny Raping.. Usual New York Stuff

  4. hmmmm

    not much be a kid while it  last and mooch off your parents or ask for allowannce

  5. saturday job in a shop..don't do babysitting..not these days..way too dodgy

  6. At 14 I was desperate for work too. I got a job through my Orthdontist, he thought I was a nice kid and offered me a position...at your age anywhere coroporate won't look at you...ask everyone you know if they need help. Go around to local offices and ask if they need help filing. Ask your parents or your parents friends.

    The trick is to hunt but you can find something that's not babyitting.

  7. legally? nothing.

    but you might consider doing yardwork for people (raking leaves, mowing lawns, trimming hedges, etc.)

    ... or walking dogs.

  8. maybe mcdonalds

  9. Try movie theater , I was a popcorn girl at age 12 for our local drive inn theater...

  10. lie about your age! jk jk...uumm shovel snow in the winter for 2$ and you'll be rich in no time

  11. i'm goin tutor away younger age or idk same problem

  12. You Can Drop News Papers off

  13. Do you know what kind of career you want?  I wanted to be a mechanic and started at a motorcycle shop sweeping floors at 12.  I learned alot.

  14. If you get a work permit, you can often work at pet kennels, certain swimming pools, and some restaraunts. Specificly, I know for a fact that PassPets takes 14 year olds.

  15. If a young person wishes to work, and gets out there and looks, they will find work.  There is nothing wrong with cleaning or babysitting.  It is where a lot of us start.  Most of us start our working life with menial jobs that we don't like, but the money aspect lures us on.  If a young person is not being handed things for no effort, they will learn just how life really works.  We cannot prepare them for reality if we coddle them.  If they get a crappy job, it might urge them on to finish school and "become something".

    There are huge corporations who might hire a young presentable person with a good attitude to deliver mail or be a messager person..if they don't mind hiring an underage person.

    Walking and babysitting dogs or cats can be a good idea.  Doing someone's laundry and neatly folding it can be a good way to earn money.  People in my area get about 7-8 bucks a load.  Often if you volunteer at a good place and prove yourself you end up getting hired.

    Go thru the phone book to get ideas.

    Good luck!

  16. You could ask around, but I don't think there's much.

  17. Lawncare!

  18. You can rake leaves in my yard and clean dog c**p and I'll pay you?

  19. You need a hardship license. But most places probably still won't hire you. Stick with odds-and-end jobs for now.

  20. Tutor.

  21. well here in texas you can work at subway you know the sandwhich place

  22. check with your park district, they usually hire around 14, if you have a park district that is

  23. Slave

  24. hmmmmmmmmmmmm, try going 2 a mini golf place, i saw about 3 14 year olds there! or the mall in a store or smoothie place or something like that.

  25. have you tried the local market

  26. Have you evaluated your skills and written them down?

    Check with your school counselor and see if they have any suggestions.

  27. well know body likes this job but u get money though bag boy is the job

  28. a tutor, a personal assisant(if your luckey), and yeah mini golf places or also if your luckey an amusment park but most pepole dont hire untill your at least 15, 16. just depends on what kind of job you want.

  29. part time tuition classes seeing ur a student, part time in a small cafe or shop?

  30. Had that same prob.

  31. Retail - If you get a gig at a store you like to shop at you can also get discounts.

    Restaurant - It’s a thankless job but you'll get experience.  It doesn't have to be fast food.  It can be a "sit down restaurant" where families or couples go.  Maybe a place your friends/school mates don't frequent, as it could suck to serve them.

    Junior Life Guard - Look into it at your local recreation center or local hotel.

    Recreation and Parks Department - First look at it in your state and then locally.

    Cashier - Lots of small stores - not chain store are willing to hire teenagers.  You just have to gain their trust and keep it.  

    Ask your parents or other family members.  Maybe they have friends that own business and they could be willing to hire a younger person.  Small business love this.  Only this is you might be under the microscope with this one because of the family relationship.
