• I used to work at my church watching the younger children in the nursery.

• I work at a local bowling alley, they have a room for parents to drop off their children while they bowl on leagues. The bowling alley pays me because this way they get more people to sign up for leagues. Sometimes parents will also tip.

• Work at a "Pick-Your Own" Farm. You will get paid a decent amount. For example, in the fall you can go to apple orchards and offer to pick up the apples that have fallen on the ground. I used to do this and get paid 50 cents a basket. This may not sound like much but the basket fill up quick and it still leaves time for other part time jobs.

• You can start your own worm beds and sell the worms for fishing.

• You can, actually, get a job at 14 if you live in a state that allows it (California, for example). Most places aren't normally willing to hire 14 year olds, but present yourself to them professionally and you'll definitely impress them. For the child labor laws, just do a search for "[your state] child labor law", eg, "California child labor law".

• Do work for your neighbors, e.g. lawn, landscaping, or cleaning out garages.

• Some public libraries hire 14-year-olds to re-shelve books. The pay is usually just above minimum wage. Also, during the summer, waterparks like SplishSplash (on Long Island) hire 14-year-olds.

• I'm 14 and employed in the fall and spring as a soccer referee, and in the summer as a Sno Cone Maker in the parking lot of the local recreation center. There are quite a few jobs for 14-year-olds here.

• When I was 12, I applied to be a soccer referee (in Sydney, Australia). I started when I was 12 and finished it at 14, and got a new job at City Beach Store until age 15, when I started a new job at Coles.

• It depends where you live. Try using the Google search form and type in, "At what age can a minor work and receive pay?"

• If you are too young then you could work in a grocery store as a delivery boy, stocking shelves, etc. You could do "odd jobs" for neighbors like mowing their lawns, fixing fences, painting those fences, etc. You can baby-sit for neighbors and possibly put a few notices on lamp standards, etc., to advertise baby-sitting services. You can "dog walk." There are many people that have to leave their dogs at home and would love a dependable person to come in and walk their dog for good exercise.

• At 14, there are plenty of jobs. I am 15, and I started my first job at 14, at a McDonald's restaurant. You can also be a hostess for a restaurant, or even a busboy. All minimum wage paying jobs, but jobs none the less.

• I think you can get a job pushing grocery carts at the local grocery store... but of course it depends on the store. I've also heard that you can get a job at Price Chopper (grocery store).

• Depending on the state you live in, McDonald's and other fast-food restaurants may let you work part time.

• If you want to earn money and can't get a job with a business, be creative. What can you do? Mow lawns, baby-sit, or yard work, paper route. For a regular flow of incoming cash, you could do a paper route.

There are some non-agricultural jobs that you can get, e.g., grocery stores. It also depends on the employer. You should probably check out your state labor laws.

• You can work at Dairy Queen.

• You can work at 14 as long as you have a workers permit -- which some schools provide. Or you can call (US 614) 644-2239 and look at websites such as www.youthrules.dol.gov and www.com.state.oh.us for more info. The law says you CAN work at certain places with a permit.

• Try mowing lawns; you can't get a real job till you are 16.

• 14 is pretty young for most employers. Try shoveling snow, yard work, cleaning houses for neighbors, babysitting. Otherwise, maybe you could intern or volunteer with a company and then in a year or so they will trust you so much that they will give you a real job right away instead of the low-end jobs most 16-year-olds get. Try picking up garbage for a construction company, or answering phones for a non-profit organization.

• You could always apply for a job at a movie theater.
• Look on the billboards at one of your local shops. I did this and now I have a job as a waitress and I also babysit most Friday nights!

• baby-sitting, fast food, waiter/waitress (some places), and party helpers at places like ice/roller skating rinks; arcade type places; etc.

• If you are too young then you could work in a grocery store as a delivery boy, stocking shelves, etc. You could do "odd jobs" for neighbors like mowing their lawns, fixing fences, painting those fences, etc. You can baby-sit for neighbors and possibly put a few notices you've made up on lamp standards, etc., to advertise baby-sitting services. You can "dog walk." There are many people that have to leave their dogs at home and would love a dependable person to come in a walk their dog for good exercise. I admire you for wanting to work at such a young age.

• Don't get a job. not at 14, once you start working you can never stop.

• I am currently 14 years of age, and i asked in shops at the high street. Many said No, but I went far up the high street and visited the 99p Store. I asked in there and they said that they take 14 year olds, so i sent my CV in and a week later i got a job interview and got the job. I work weekends and 2 hours after school and the pay is good for teenagers!

• Ask a neighbor (if they have a dog or cat) if they ever need a sitter. It's a lot of fun and you get lots of $$$.
• You could ask a local grocery store if you can apply and they will say you have to be 16 but if you bring your parent in and same you need a job really bad and they can pay you as low as they want they will almost definitely give it to you.
• You can also be a babysitter or a paper delivery person, some fast food places, possible a fashion store (if your a girl haha unless you wouldn't mind) And much more places.
• You have to get working papers, depending on the type of work. I think you get these either at school or from the town clerks office. Try the town clerks office for summer jobs, those are the best! They pay very well for example, for helping supervise or play with younger children.

• Looking in the job centers
• Looking in magazines/newspapers/online (<-----be careful with online vacancies)
• Ask friends and family if they know of any vacancies
