What are good jobs for a 13 year old in Bowling Green KY?

Answer 1

When You Are 13 Or Younger . . .

* You can deliver newspapers. * You can work as a baby-sitter. * You can work as an actor or performer in motion pictures, television, theater or radio. * You can work in a business solely owned or operated by your parents. * You can work on a farm owned or operated by your parents.

However, parents are prohibited from employing their children in manufacturing, mining, or any other occupation declared hazardous by the Secretary of Labor. from other contributors:

* Any job that requires little or no skills, such as a register worker at a fast food restaurant, is a good start. If you want a more personal job such as babysitting, visiting your local college campus and viewing the want ads is a good start. The jobs that are posted there are catered for students, and it will not hurt to ask even if you are not yet in college. == == * I disagree with above statement mentioning any job which requires little or no skills. Any person who will ever be intelligent should be intelligent by the time they are a young adult. When I was 16 I was working as a software programmer making 30k a year, at 19 I started a buisness selling software services. I am not 20 and make over 300k a year. I would feel very stupid if I spent my younger years working a cash register when I should have been learning and building skills to succeed. == == * at the age of thirteen you can get a job of a paper round == == * Another good job is a job as a cashier or stocker at a department store or general store. I work at PETsMART on weekends and i am making ~$9/hr. im a cashier there. == == * You should get a job doing whatever is most challenging. The first time I went out to give resumes I was more looking for a job doing cleaning like a chamber maid because I love to clean and it avoided confrontation(unlike in retail with constant customers). Coincidentally my first call back was from a retail store that I just happened to put my resume in. I didn't have any sales experience and was even gonna say no thank you because it seemed to be to much of a challenge but instead they gave me the job opportunity and I took it. I know the job like the back of my hand and having chose what I figured I wasn't capable of just built my confidence and now I know that I am capable of jobs like that. Point is don't conform yourself to one criteria of work,you can do ANY job if you tell yourself you can. And when you do you feel that much better about yourself.You feel you have no experience, the only way to get it is to start somewhere.
