Some real jobs for 15yr olds?

Question

I am looking for a job for my age (15yr) and not during the winter. I don't wanna baby-sit or mow lawns or crap like that.

Got any suggestions oh, and by th way, I'm not gonna wait until i'm 16yr.

Answer 1

When I was 15 I of course worked food service, but hey, I saved a couple grand up so at 15 I was doing good. I also started being a ref for young kids soccer teams when I was 14. I believed they paid aproximately $10-15 a game and it was fun.

Answer 2

When I was 15 I got a job at an after school program. it was about 2 hours a day and i took care of several children. After that I got a job at an animal clinic, taking care of the animals, feeding them, and cleaning the entire clinic. fast food places will usually hire a 15 year old with parents consent. You could also get a job as a bus person in a restaurant, and a lot of pet stores will hire 15 year olds. my suggestion is just go around and get applications. fill them out, let the people know you are 15 but have your parents permission to work. the most they can do is turn you down, no big deal.

Answer 3

Young man, I suggest you might want to alter your attitude.Many great men started out life in lowly jobs doing meanial labour. Study the early lives of some of the worlds wealthiest men and women who had been born into poverty and made themselves into world, and corporate leaders. People like Walt Disney(ever hear of the Disney corporation?), Harrison Ford, and Thomas Edison. Shoveling walks, mowing yards, baby sitting and odd jobs is not above you at your age. It is a chance to learn good business practices, and the other skills you need for success. Ronald Reagan worked as a life guard. Others worked as waiters and waitresses, soda jerks(someone who makes milk shakes and banana splits), and flipped burgers. Dave Thomas(Wendy's), Colonal Sanders(KFC), and Roy Crock(McDonalds)all started out on the low end of the corporate ladder. You are at the beginning of your life. so do not eshew the low jobs. Think of it as training for being President, if not the United States, maybe your own corporation. You might be the next Donald Trump, or Bill Gates, but not with that attitude. Think about that, right? It takes a man who is not afraid of honest hard work to run the world.

It is illegal in California for any Student under the age of 16 to work without a Permit. See your councilor first to avoid any money being taken away from you due to fine's, charges, or IRS. Any money made must be reported to your parents so that they can take that off or add to thier taxes and you recieve or they do a dividend at the quarter. Also the councilor can add credits to your school work which up your GPA. This leads to added credits towards your educational credits. Fast cash is in Sale, Gardening, Handyman labor, and news paper route....Selling lemonaide always worked for me. My best friend worked at the Golf Course at 14 and is now General Manager. If you want to work forever, Start working now. I am still going to school and I retired at 32.

Answer 5

I don't know of any "real jobs" for people who are under 16-18.. but I do know that there are places around you that more than likely hire people who are 14 or15... I got my first job when I was 14, at the pizza place by my house.. Just keep an eye open, call around to local businesses.. things like that

Good luck!
