Answer 1

Paper round
Wash cars
Babysit

Answer 2

it good that a teenager wants to get a job.

You dont have may options with jobs without a card but you could do a cash in hand job.

Try looking at cafes. lie that your 16 and do glass collecting. you have to be 16 but it aint rocket science.

The holiday camps will be open soon so why dont you write or go and see the manager to see if yuo can get a job such as the play area, waiting on, arcade.

Or why not get a cleaning job after school. knock on doors and see if people will pay you to walk the dog.

where do you live as i need a babysitter????

if you've left school for own purposes why not go around hairdressers and see if they need anyone to sweep up the floor and makes cups of tea?? also, look in the local newspaper as they are always jobs in there. remember it has to be cash in hand though.

honestly email me at [e-mail] as i need a babysitter. you wouldnt have to do anything and a few evenings a week. please tell me where you live??

Answer 3

paper round
babysitting
car washing-spring-summer only
cleaning houses for ppl

erm make a cv on computer erm go to shops in town and c if they take on anyone under the age of 16, im sure they will, its really ppl under the age of 15 that are less likely to get a job

national insurance card-that wil arrive a few weeks b4 u turn 16

Answer 4

Go to your local job centre and find out some info and ideas. You need insurance for fulltime work, for which you also need to be 16.
However its ok to work if you are under 16, you can only work parttime and not allowed to do any heavy lifting..

Answer 5

Try to mow some lawns or do some cleaning. The work system basically stinks, especially if you can't fulfill their often unreasonable requirements.

Answer 6

someone should give you a job for at least trying,
i mean half the dole dossers on here dont want jobs,
good luck to ya mate

Answer 7

Look in your local rag and assuming you don't live in an inner city there'll be ads for stable work. Shovelling sh*t etc but at least it's money

Answer 8

You could work from home on your computer- write articles,sell on eBay,make a website,take surveys. More details are available at http://www.pcworkathome.net/jobsforminors.html

Answer 9

It is so refreshing to hear you want to work and make some money,there is always work
around if you want it, just keep your eyes open
and ask around, anyway good luck to you.

Answer 10

organise a school disco (or something) and charge people to come.

Of course you could do something illegal / or exciting like:
Become a hitman
Become a daredevil stunt man
Sell your parents / Mum to a white slave trader ( if you are white of course)
Set up a chocolate factory and only recruit little men with funny heads.

Or just wait.....
