YES AND WHAT YOU RECIEVE WILL TEACH YOU VALUABLE LESSONS. IN ADDITION TO THE MONEY YOU EARN YOU'LL LEARN THAT YOUR TIME MEANS MONEY. THE MORE YOU KNOW THE MORE VALUE YOUR TIME BECOMES. PLUS YOU'LL HAVE THE CASH TO DO WHAT YOU WANT TO. IF NOT KEEP WORKING AND YOU WILL.
GOD BLESS

It depends on the laws in your area. Most places I've lived in the US, you can get a regular (part time) job at 15. However, if all else fails you can try...
Babysitting
Dog walking
Dog sitting
Yard work for neighbors
Cleaning someone's garage
I will tell you that if you are spoiled, then finding out how much work it takes to get what you want may really help you get a reality check.
When someone tells you something negative, that's an opinion. If it comes from someone you don't really like, then it's an opinion without much merit. If, however, lots of people are telling you the same thing, and you actually like / love / respect some of them..you may want to consider changing your behavior.
Good luck!

If you are not spoiled then you shouldnt have a problem with getting a job...you are old enough, but its not gonna be so easy during school...the best thing to do is to ask somebody you know for a job. One of your parents friends that own businesses.

Yes, you can get a job when you are 15. your school probably has an employment office (most do). you'll need to get a workers permit from them (if your school doesnt have an emloyment office you can probably get one from the main office). most places you have to be 16, but many fast food places you can be 15, or you could babysit.
good luck!

There are jobs for you....just get out there and look! Someone else mentioned McDonalds....nothing wrong with that, or babysitting. Anyway, I always felt that people should work for what they have instead of just having it given to them. You will definitely learn to appreciate things if you have to work for them.

at 15, all you have to do is go to your school to get a work permit signed. Then you can get a job at restaurants, stores, etc. If worse comes to worse, you could always cut grass or babysit.

Yes you can find a job at your age. If you get one the things you buy will mean a lot more to you and you'll appreciate them more cause you earned the money to pay for them.

There are only a few options open to a person your age, i.e., babysitting, lawnmowing, maybe helping out with a family business. No offense, but you came off sounding very rude in your post.

I think you have to be 16 to actualy have a job, it is very hard finding a job at 15.

There is a chance, although you're more limited to what type of jobs. Maybe bagging groceries, or something small. Good luck.
