Answer 2

Hi, I appreciate your get-up-and-go enthusiasm!
First off you will need to get some help in creating a 'resume'
you can list things you have done around the house, school and neighborhood. Also list your attributes such as promptness, attention and care of customers, good listening skills, ability to follow instructions, and willing to learn!

Did you look into getting 'working papers' ?

Here are sources to help you:

If you are the ages between 14-21, economically disadvantaged, in or out of school and need vocational training, give this number a call to find out about the program.

Answer 3

Interesting. Too bad you speak English and are not an illegal, because I don't think age is an issue with their U.S. employers.

Living in Tucson, I'm thinking you're not too many miles away from the Mexican border. Would it be possible for you to cross over and find some type of part-time menial job after school and then cross back after your shift?

Answer 4

There's quite a few places that will hire you. Start with small businesses, then work your way to finding a corporation to hire you.
