Soooo I'm 14 and going to be a sophomore in high school next year, and I want to get a job. I don't know who to ask since it's summer and I can't go to my guidance counselor or anything. So I was hoping if you people could give me any sort of information that I need (this makes me miss the Information Brokering thread. It was so helpful Q^Q) Stuff such as resume's, work permits, how I can find a job stuff like that o^o Thanks, every bit of info counts!

Isn't there a law for underage working where you live?

i have heard of underage people working,but it is jobs like handing in newspapers and such,but i am not sure if that is possible this days

>>2 If it's a formal job and on the books, yes.

>>1 I think all you can do is babysitting, pet-sitting, pet walking, and car washing. You can't even work as a waitress as of yet. Your parents can't give you an allowance for chores?

>>2 Age limit is 14 where I am, even my boyfriend has a part-time job at a nursing home :I

>>4 They try to but they either forget, or are too poor XD We're in the rich suburbs where everyone is broke af

DO you have anything you're particularly good at? If you can play an instrument, why not give busking a try? If you can draw or paint, try commissioning work on DeviantArt or something.

I mean, they're hard to get going, but you can earn some crazy money doing something you love if you can get a roll going. I have a mate who has earned over $1000 in one day busking, things can get crazily lucrative.

>>6 Baking, cleaning, arting, and I'm dipping my pinky toe into the "business" side of dA :/

>>6 i think you have put too many zeros in my opinion...
