Hi, I am 16 years old. I really want some extra cash...But I'm a little weary as getting a formal job goes.
I'm starting to desire more things like a cell phone/service, money to go out with/do more fun stuff with friends, and to start saving more for college and a car. I know I can't always ask on my parents for this stuff because we are not wealthy, we are bottom middle class.
I wouldn't mind getting a job... But I do sports. I have Fall cross country coming up, and there are races on Saturdays. No sports in the winter, but Track in the spring. Would sports interfere with me working? Would my employer (Price Chopper Grocery Store is where I think I might work) understand I do sports, and let me continue doing them?
I am also very shy. I'm scared I won't fit in I guess, and have a bit of a speech impediment. ...I want to be a cashier.
Is 15 hours/week reasonable for my situation?
Should I even get a job at all?
Any help/advice/suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!
