idk bout you, but here we got min wage for under 18, for litteraly every age after 14.
im getting around 5$ an hour, on my nib job.
i dont do much but i guess its worth my time. i also got a gf cus of the job so, call me lucky. i suggest looking for small weird places[not too weird or creepy] that are in a need of workers.
Its really not so bad to work at your age, aslong as you dont overdo it.
Your post made no sense.Quote:

He's saying that his country allows minimum wage for people aged 14+ and ask anywhere you go (mainly small places) for a job for yourself.Quote:

If that doesn't help, collect copper and different metals. It may not seem much, but when people have their heavy garbage out, you could be looking at $250 at the end of the day. It adds up.
Code a Minecraft plugin and release it to the Minecraft Forums with an ******* link, make sure it's good. Or do something like that :]
Unless you don't code. Then I don't know.
I used to work for some place that hosts parties/ balls/ galas etc. I'd be there usually to aid the bar people with getting materials they need once they run out.
Not bad for working 2 days a week and making $390 a month considering I'm still in school. Just extra $$ in my pocket for when I graduate
I'm not entirely sure the legal working age in your country is, but when I was 14 my first job was a cashier at TacoTime (Canadian Taco-Bell) Earning a nice minimum wage. So do not expect to become rich working where you are and the age you are at.
I wouldn't be too sure about the last bit. There's been many teenage entrepreneurs that have came from nothing, Richard Branson is one, he started at age of 16 creating his own magazine called 'Student' which was a success, from that to now you'll see he's highly successful.Quote:

Really, how hard is it to figure out ?
If you work now, you'll lose the time in which you could've practiced for a job or self-development.. Which would grant you a better future.
Work now, lose time and live with a shitty job that's averagely paid..
Think about it mate, after all..
Who am I? If you don't believe me ( I believe I'll be pretty damn succesful in life, I am right now.. and no, I am not a guy that loves himself a lot, just a fact.) just read some John C. Maxwell articles/books, he briefly explains those things.
But, in fact, pick any succesful guy you know and let him be your example...
Good luck.
I work in Sanrio.
:zippy:
Last I checked on my receipt it said GST: %9, PST% 6. :Derp:, Same thing when I was 13, 12, 10...Quote:

When you finish school and head to college is the ideal time to look for a part time job as EMA has now been scraped, when I was 14 the last thing I was worried about was money and job.
When you hit 16 - 18 look for a job in a local supermarket, start working part time then once you've finished college you'll most likely be given a full time position at said supermarket. Sainsbury's are great to work for if you ask me.
Most Supermarkets are now very hesitant to hire anyone under the age of 18 full-time and out of the Christmas trading months due to licensing laws, whilst working there you’ll only be able to stack shelf’s and deal with stock. You won’t be allowed to work on a checkout, kiosk or customer services due to the possibility of alcohol being sold.Quote:

Basically you want to be looking in stores like Primark, McDonalds, and other stores similar to that. They tend to take on a lot of 16 year-olds around this time of year (school leaving). You might have a better chance working somewhere like that next year though if you apply as soon as you leave school.Quote:

There's no point commenting if you don't know...Quote:
