But first, I want to address the person who says it is legal for a 14 yr old to get a job. It might be legal where you are, but laws and regulations vary from state to state, maybe even from city to city. It would be best to check your local ordinances. The area where I live requires anyone under 16 to get a work permit in order to get a 'real' job like in a store.
For a teenager there are plenty of jobs you can do if you are truly willing to work, starting at the bottom, of course. Some pretty good suggestions have already been made, but the possibilities are really limited only by your own imagination.
Get creative. That is the REAL way to get ahead. You may find yourself doing some pretty distasteful jobs, but you may also get paid quite well for them.
For example, you could offer the service of cleaning pet 'droppings' from neighbors' yards. Yuck. But if they don't want to do it, they may pay a premium for the service.
You could also: >babysit (you can even just play with or otherwise occupy a small child for a busy parent works at home or just would like an extra helping hand. Also, in this vein, someone may hire you to spend time with a handicapped relative or visit with an elderly family member - just talking to them and keeping them company, reading to them, playing cards or other games...) For a job like this, it would serve you well to take a course in First Aid and CPR.
BUT...make sure you are reliable and responsible. Word of mouth is the best way to build a business even if it's just babysitting or odd jobs. Don't make promises you can't or won't keep. Don't take on jobs that are beyond your abilities. And NEVER take your promises lightly. Who would want to hire you if you keep canceling or putting them off because your friends asked you to go to the mall, or that cute boy or girl asked you to help them with their homework or to go to a movie with them...finally.
Negotiate price BEFORE you do a job. Might not hurt to get something in writing...people will take advantage of a kid - of anybody - if you let them.
And most of all BE SAFE! -Don't take a job from someone you don't know. -Don't take a job from someone you DO know if something doesn't feel right about it. -Make sure your parents or guardian know exactly where you will be at all times, who you will be with, and when you will be home. I would keep a journal or planner with your schedule in it, including the names, addresses, and phone numbers of your employers in it; as well as what kind of work you do for them, which days you work for them, and the time (i.e. Thursdays 10am-2pm - yard work for Mrs. Smith; 456 Elm St. #555-5555) -Keep in touch with parents during the day. If you babysit from 9am to 3pm for one person, cut someone else's lawn a 3:30pm, and walk a neighbor's dog at 4:45pm, your parents should know your schedule. Call when you arrive and again when you leave each location for your own safety. -Don't follow the same route everyday walking to a job, or if you are walking neighbors dogs. -And, above all, if something doesn't feel right, trust your instincts. Don't hesitate to tell someone 'no.' And make sure to mention your unease to anyone who will listen.
So, be creative, be responsible and be safe. And you should do just fine.
Hey I think you should try something along the lines of the casual stuff mow lawns cut grass stuff like that but you could try maybe joinging a YouTube account (not partner) and hopefully if your videos are good enough theyll hire you to make videos for there website and you can get payed for that.
There are several ways you can do this including: * Looking in magazines/job centres/newspapers/online (<----- be careful with online vacancies) * Ask family and friends to listen out for suitable vacancies * Advertise in shops (do not give any personal contact information unless absolutely necessary, and if you do, TELL A PARENT OR GUARDIAN) * Visit your nearest Connexions centre or the Connxeions centre if you are between 13-19 years old * Help around the house (chores) * Ask friends parents if you can do anything for them or relatives * Knock on doors (be careful and take an adult with you) or post leaftlets (make sure you have a license if required)
