Look in restaurants, hardware stores, etc. You should be able to work a limited number of hours.

If you are under sixteen, your options are very limited. In fact, your options are very limited until you are eighteen.
I'm not familiar with your area personally, but most places have strict child labor laws. Usually a person under eighteen is not permitted to work later than 10:00 PM, and they are a huge liability for the company because they are not an adult, and therefore not legally culpable for anything that goes wrong.
If you can't find a job through a friend or family member, your best bet is to pick a fast food restaurant and work there until you are old enough to get a better job. It's not great work, but they're always hiring, and it's better than nothing.
Best of luck finding something!

In most states if you are under the age of 16, you have to at least be 15 1/2 , call your local job service, they should have a form that has to be filled out....Its called a work permit or something of that nature. I believe your parents have to sign it as well.
Then you can start looking for a job in what ever field you are interested in.
Some great jobs for younger people these days, for part time :
grocery stores, printing stores, pet stores, Animal shelter, movie theaters, mall, fast food....
Make sure you pick the right one for you, because once you start working it will go on your resume later in life and your attendance, and length of work has a lot to tell the next employer who hires you what kind of employee you will be.....

Well you can't really get a job yet because you are not sixteen but you can try a babysitting service. Make flyer's and put them up in your community center, grocery store, bank, school, poles on streets, where ever you think someone will read it. Be sure to ask your parents first. Babysitting is a great skill to have because it teaches you about responsibility and develop parenting skills for the future, plus it's a great way to make money.

I don't think you can legally work until you are 16, I think the only thing you could possibly do is babysit or do some lawnmowing. When I was 15 I worked for the local job corps. I don't know if they have one near where you live, might be worth a shot.

I'm sure you can, but it wouldn't be anything too nice, I think the only places where you can find a job at under the age of 16 are usually under the table jobs, or fast food places.

stop and shop will hire you but only on weekends, if you are 16 they will give you certain hours (which is awesome) like 3-7 at night or something.
also dunkin donuts hires at 15
