Where to work at age 15? (Pittsburgh Area, PA)?

Question

I'm turning 15 this month and school is letting out this week. (WHOO!) Over the summer I want to make some money because sitting around the house is getting pretty boring... (Wow, I've never said that before!) I know that work is hard to find at a young age, but what are some suggestions that hire young people? I know that the carwash up the road will, McD's, Wendy's, other fast food places will also, but I *REALLY* don't wanna know how that stuff is made! What are other suggestions? I'd like something very local (within bike riding distance) because My parents and brother both have to work, and there wont be any other way for me to get there! And also, do I need a work license? Where can I get one if I do?

Answer 1

My kid made more money, in less time, than any of his friends did, doing the job that they all thought they were to good to do....(Till they found out he would make 3 times as much an hour)....He mowed laws...about16-20 a week. He had a regular route. He would clear ove $300 a weekend.
