Are there jobs that a 14 year old can get? how? |
i won't be 15 until september and i am in desperate need of a job. is there anywhere that might hire a 14 year old? if so, how do i find one? i live it pittsburgh, PA if it helps.. i don't live anywhere near you, but.... i went job searching when i was 14 almost 15, and some grocery stores hire baggers at 14, so you could give it a shot... hopefully it works out for ya its summer. i think you are old enough to work arent you?> also you could see if any of your parents' friends who have officese or business if they could use nad summer help. good luck. Listen I don't know much about a job that a 14 yr old can get, except babysitting or summer jobs. But tell your parents about Fundraiser .Fundraiser 1.0 is a great startup program that many Profit and Non-Profit businesses, entrepreneurs, and income seekers are utilizing to raise capital online for many different projects, 鈥渂e it a Restaurant business, or a Nursery, or maybe even you want large funding for your new dream home!

Try and see for yourself!er. Tell your parents about this website. Let them look at it . I am a single mom and grandmother, this is a great website. http://get2site.com/u.asp?i=3376... Think jobs that can be done during summer months, part time, on weekends other than school nites. Examples: Golf courses need people to carry the golf clubs and retrieve the lost balls (Caddies), and because this is outdoors, there are more need for such people outside the winter time, and on weekends, because many of the players are busy at their jobs during the week. So think where else logically is there a need for the work force mainly on weekends and summer months, that a young person is equally qualified to do vs. an old person, and also willing to accept minimum wage. Seems to me the people who deliver newspapers to private residences are very young, sometimes doing it via bicycle, so this is a job that can be done before you can get your driver's licence. However, if you intend to be a bicycle messenger delivery, I suggest you take a hard look at bike safety ... safety helpmet, goggles (so insects don't fly into your eyes), reflectors (so motorists can see you), color of clothing that can be seen a long way away when lighting is not good. There may be recreational & amusement parks that have need of temporary help ... think janitor ... they probably do not want you to be a ticket collector or operator of ride machinery. Now there are all the jobs that supposedly illegal immigrants come here to do because supposedly the employers cannot find legal Americans to do. Like being at a hotel cleaning the rooms, or helping out at a farm. Some of that work is pretty hard. You might not have the stamina for it. Every state has child labor laws ... you ought to get familiar with them, so you know what kinds of restrictions they impose. Start with those from the federal government, which cover you in whatever US state you end up in. http://www.dol.gov/dol/topic/youthlabor/... here's Penssylvania's http://www.dli.state.pa.us/landi/lib/lan... the links on the web sites might give you additional ideas where to apply. Look in the classified section of the newspaper (help wanted ads) to see if there are any for PART TIME employment, that do not require vast experience or a college degree. Here's a short list of jobs which you can create to generate income: 1. Learn calligraphy so that you can provide handwritten invitations and thank you notes to prospective wedding parties, birthday celebrations, etc. Seek out clients through wedding planners at nearby churches and temples. A starter calligraphy kit usually runs around $20 and anyone can easily pick up this skill. The going rate is usually $1 per hand addressed item. 2. Become a "poser" who assists wedding photographers in setting and arranging various individuals in group and single photographic positions. "Posers" carry around a sketch book of various sitting and standing poses which consists of onion skin overlays of various wedding pictures bound in albums. Again, contact local wedding photographers and wedding planners, accordingly. The hourly pay is around $10-$12 per hour and you are often invited to attend all dining activities. 3. Seek from your neighbors a gardner position which involves planting, weed removal, plant/tree trimming, light brush clearance. You will be using the neighbor's equipment and tools. Again, do not represent yourself as a lawn mower since there are any number of safety issues involved. A door-to-door solicitation of surrounding neighbors is required and you can charge between $6 to $9 per hour. 4. Offer policing/removal or clearance of trash services to surrounding neighbors which involve trash pickup within nearby residential area. Limit the extent of pickup to small areas and be aware that there are no hazardous terrain or elements involved in this process. Again, a door-to-door solicitation of neighbors is in order. You can charge between $6.75 to $7.50 per hour. 5. Acquire a set of window cleaning tools [a bucket, liquid window cleaner, sponge, squeegee, handle with an extension and a small step ladder] and solicit local businesses for your window cleaning services. However, be careful to limit the height of the window cleaning to no higher than one story. Charge $1 per window panel. 6. Become a proxy/stand-in for neighbors to allow delivery of goods and packages to your home/apartment. Acquire the authority to sign any receipt of incoming packages as an accepting neighbor. Charge $1 per each package handled by you. 7. Consider becoming a restaurant-cafe customer liaison by using your cell phone at restaurants-cafes to coordinate with the hostess to keep track of waiting customers. Whenever there's a very long period of time to activate a waiting list, you want to offer the restaurant your services so that customers do not have to stand around for any lengthy period of time. And when their name/assigned number comes up; you can call the upcoming customer's cell phone to tell them that they can return to the restaurant and be served. The call back fee is usually around $0.50 cents on a per head basis. For example, a couple would be charged $1.00 while children under 6 would not be charged. Placement of a plaque which outlines your fee schedule near the hostess station is sufficient to garner attention of prospective customers who will value your services since they can do other activities outside of the restaurant -- often beyond the range of any inhouse paging system. You realize that everyone has a cellphone and why not take advantage of the connectivity to make the diner's experience worthwhile. The restaurant will also appreciate the added service you are providing as a customer liaison. 8. Why not become a paid feeder servicing the disabled at nearby nursing, convalescent, assisted living/care centers and hospitals. It involves feeding food to patients who are unable to feed themselves. The starting rate is $8.00 per hour. The only downside is that one has to take precautions to wash one's hands after each feeding. A posting of your services [by a business card or flyer] on a reviewable bulletin board would be enough to generate customers. The paid feeder position is one of the fastest growing occupation at this time. Good luck! |
