I'm not sure you can actually go work at thirteen due to child labor laws- most places I've checked want you to be eighteen, but that's because they use heavy macinery. I think the majority of places will hire you once you're sixteen.
Even then the most "decent job" you'll get is babysitting- most jobs for sixteen-year-olds are minimum wage jobs, and you can only work part time (20 hours or less a week).

You still have about 3 years to go. You can always go to work at WalMart when you turn 16, or there's always McDonald's (which is not as bad as it seems) I started working at Krogers when I turned 16, then went on to Office Max. But for now, you might see about babysitting for someone, mowing lawns, cleaning houses for people, or stuff likethat. You can't get a real actual job until you're 16, 15 in a few places but you'll get very few hours.

A decent job? I think you have to be 18. At thriteen there's nothing. You might get jobs but not that good pay. You can start getting fast food jobs at 15 and a half probably but only couple of hours since kids have school. Sorry.

In most jobs you do have to be 16 sometimes 15, it really does depend on the state. I am not sure about the state you live in you could always google it. Some places like retirement homes might let you walk someones dog.

nicely now's July and additionally you have 3 months to make al ot of money, why not attempt a foodstuff place like mcdonalds on account that they pay stable or purple chicken..they continuously want a hand. In retail i could propose Kmart or some thing comparable - although foodstuff places tend to offer greater shifts.

Well...the youngest I've ever heard was 14, but the average age is. I know that you want to work, but I think that you should enjoy your time being a child.
