I had some kind of job from the time I was 16... I worked retail mostly. Sucks, but it gives you some cash.
There has to be SOMETHING that can hire you now until you are 18 and have a lil more variety.

Why not head to the local drugstore (like CVS or Walgreen's) or the local WalMart? WalMart is always hiring.

can't you just get a workers permit? i know where i live you need one if you are under 16 and are going to work. look into it.

:iagree: I started working when I was 15. I was able to get a work permit through city hall early because my birthday was within 6 months or something. Anyway, look into getting a permit. I guess the laws about working age vary by state, but here in Illinois you can definitely work at 16. And like gouldie said, smaller pizza shops will let you slide even without a permit. I worked next door to this one shop in Tallahassee and there was one kid who was 14!
Also check with your local gov't to see if there are any jobs available for people under 18. here, they have a whole "Summer Youth Employment Program" to link up local kids with jobs. My friend's little brother is 15 doing light gardening type work for Northwestern University making $8.50 /hr. He says its not even hard work... they ride around in an air conditioned van most of the day

sure, you can work at 17. but it doesnt mean the job has to hire you. mianly cause you have to be 18 to operate a lot of stuff

i just applied to be a pizza hut delivery driver yesterday. you need to have been driving at least one year to apply there, have a valid drivers license *duh*, list any accidents or moving violations in the last 3 years, stuff like that. i don't think there was an 18+ requirement, at least here at this pizza hut in WI. i checked, and with tips here where i live they make on average $13-$20 an hour. good luck with it :)

So what is the base pay as a pizza delivery driver? I always wondered cuz in Tallahassee where I went to school, about 90% of the pizza eating population is college students (aka poor) so tips are few and far between but maybe delivering such a large volume makes up for it. Somebody has to drop a decent tip here and there.
But I assume in areas with a more diverse population (age wise) tips would be considerably better

Really though. I bet tips in rich towns are amazing! I don't know about how much pizza rich people order but I know a guy that works at a kinda ritzy hotel downtown Chicago and he racks up like $300 in tips on some shifts. One thing you can count on is rich people making sure you know they're rich... what better way than by givin the pizza guy a $50 bill and sayin "keep it" :bigthumb: :2cents:x1000!

yeah really! i live in a well off town, everyone is white, upper-middle class. so tips are very good i've heard. i wish i could deliver tips to where my cousins live. they live in a multi-million dollar gated community with a full time security guard blocking the entrance and all that. i bet those are some nice tips.
of course there are some rich people that are rich cuz they're stingy bastards. they suck. :thumbsdow

I always forget those are called moonwalks. I usually call em like "jumparounds" or "that giant thing where kids gotta take their shoes off to get in and jump around til they pass out"
Isn't my way easier?:)

I was gonna say the exact same thing. If you can find one that is privately owned and is hiring, most work under the table. Look for Mexicans (not being racist, just a fact, when there are a bunch working there, chances are, being up on their legal documents isn't the businesses' top priority) I worked at one years ago and was pulling $7 and hour plus about $2 an hour in tips, all untaxed. Not a bad deal for only drying or vacuuming.
