ok well im gonna turn 14 in the summer and i was wonder if i could get a job?(a summer job)
how old were you when u got your first job? and what or where was it?

[ImmortalH]

I think it depends on where you are from. Most of the time its around 14-15 where you can get a job, but its very limited.

[*Kathleen*]

Blah. Give up now.

[inthemudhole]

I'm 13.
I had a paper route when I was 12.
In some states, you can work at fast food places at the age of 14.. but I'm not 100% sure on that one.. and I imagine that it would depend upon where you live.

here in new york city you can have a summer job when your're 14, that's how i got my first job...it was horrible though, i worked in an elderly home, the people there were so rude to me

[KRicoBoriqua]

From my experience there are very few jobs out there for ppl who are not at least 16...so good luck.

someone made a related topic but yeah um im 14. i still dont have a job. i used to work at an apartment recreation center/house leasing office where i filed stuff, helped customers, mark packages, all sorts of office stuff. even though i didnt get paid. i made a lot of adult friends. im still in touch with one of them. i always feel special when im there. its like im VIP cuz you have to be 16 year or older to get in but they let me in.

my mom said she might make me work at a korean royal bakery. its gay but i need money. lol but everytime i see their store, they have no customers..

I got my first job when I was 14, at a hotel as a waitress. Unfortunately, I still have that same job at the age of 17... and I hate it!

Over here, you can get a job at McDonald's at 14.

I got a paper route like, 5 months ago and I was 12/13 ( my bday was in sept. ) It's a pain in the butthole and I'm planning on qutting in May, or so...

You dont need a job, do you?

[xSqueekyMexicanx]

^^ i want one so i can buy lots of things

[wayne]

i was 14

[ghjgfkgfk]

i doubt it. most people are looking for someone who can spell and have decent grammer. that kicks you out of it.

[HikaruTakekawa]

getting a job at fourteen is hard. not many places hire people under 16, good luck.

if u dont like me y do u even make comments on my things huh

[silver-rain]

eh, i got my first job when i was 16- at a stationary store doing office work and stuff. eh, it might be kinda hard to get a job at 14, but good luck finding one!

[ghjgfkgfk]

heh, i never said i don't like you. i'll post whever the hell i want to. you may be 13 now, but you have (or lack of, i should say) the comman sense and basic grammer skills of six year old. wait, six year olds now when to use periods.

what i said was the truth. you're going to have a pretty damn hard time getting a job when you're 14. where i live, wendy's can hire people at 14, but that doesn't mean they do. do you're parents know you want a job? i'm sure they'll have a grand time driving you to and from work.

[RandomHero]

I'm 15 and don't have a job.

Yeah, try a fast food place. They hire anybody.

[OhXiet_ItzDonnA]

i'm turnin 14 in the summer too and yeah, i need a job so i can go shoppin..hehe

[inlonelinessidie]

o well i live in cali.....

Can't until you're 15 or 16, I think. And even then you need a permit. Plus you'll hate your job if you get one so soon, trust me.

i doubt it. most people are looking for someone who can spell and have decent grammer.  that kicks you out of it.

Then learn how to spell grammar if you want to offend someone by telling them they cannot complete a sentence correctly.

[br0ken smile]

try something at a summer camp. Like a counselor or cit

[Chaos13]

i think it in the age of 15-16 for some stores. mostly 18 if you haven't already know.
