Where can a 17 year old man get a job?

Answer 1

If you want to spend the rest of your life with a low-paying job, living in a tiny appartment and spending all of your spare time working for minimum wage, then go ahead. But you will realize when you try to find a job, that it is extremely hard to find one when you haven't even graduated high school. Stay in school. -DJ Craig

Answer 2

Anywhere, if it's America. However, you're putting yourself squarely behind the 8-ball by not finishing your education. It takes a minimum of $18-20K to make a living, and without a HS diploma, that's about as much as you can ever expect to make. any fast food resturaunt, drug store, or factory. It is a shame that you chose to drop out of school. But, I have always been told "If the mind is weak, then the back must be strong". Look at the fast food areas, grocery stocking, bag person at a grocery store, and be prepared to work for minimum wage for a long time. But, if you go into any of these areas, and are a dependable and hard working person, you should have no trouble making more and moving up even without a diploma. Then I do hope you will consider getting your GED at least. Good Luck!

Answer 3

Try visiting your local laborer's union hall and paying your dues, which are usually $300 to $500. It may be wise to consider a military career. Or do what I did - work your way up through a bunch of crappy jobs for 17 years. But the fastest and most reliable way would be to attend a two year trade school or get a four-year college degree. Don't waste your time like I did trying to gain work experience. I could have made the money I make now 15 years ago if I had just taken the time to attand a 2-year trade school. There are plenty of grants and scholarships available. If not, take out student loan. There is no excuse for not attending school. Hope this helps, friend.
