You can work in an: office, grocery store, retail store, restaurant, movie theater, Baseball park, amusement park, or gasoline service station.

You generally may not work in: communications or public utilities jobs, construction or repair jobs, driving a motor vehicle or helping a driver, manufacturing and mining occupations, power-driven machinery or hoisting apparatus other than typical office machines, processing occupations, public messenger jobs, transporting of persons or property, workrooms where products are manufactured, mined or processed, or warehousing and storage.

In addition, you may not work any other job or occupation declared hazardous by the Secretary of Labor.

Different rules apply to farms, and individual States may have stricter rules.

Growing up in Rochester, I think you need to be 15 to work at Wegmans or most any business. And your hours at that age are limited and tightly regulated by the state.

You can get a paper route with the D&C/Times Union before the age of 15. Farm work is also an option in New York for teens. You may also want to try some of the local Golf courses which may allow 14yr olds to work a few hours here and there.

Babysitting is the old standby. Or doing yard work and odd jobs for neighbors. Try offering to shovel driveways on your street, especially for the elderly. You'll never run out of work when it comes to Rochester's winters! On that same idea... a lot of condo complexes in the area have plows that take care of the driveways but not the front walk.
