Are there real jobs for 14-year-olds?

I’m 14 almost 15 and I need a job in new hampshire (where I am moving next month). I need to earn money for a laptop for college( I graduate next yr) and a plane ticket to send one of my friends up to see me next summer and a second plane ticket to fly to go to a national competition next spring. Total is about 2000$ dollars so I need something fast(and well paying)

this is for lily69, umm does Publix hire 14 year olds in illinois? can you let me no

A lot of water parks and probably pools will hire 14-year-olds and they pay a decent amount. Also, many restaurants will hire 14-year-olds (the more expensive, formal restaurants probably won’t, so look at cheaper places).

six flags hires 14 year olds for sure, I know because I work there

wut about jobs in maryland like in laplata?

I worked at a store for my uncle so if you have a family member who owns a store by you then go there…we just moved so I dont work there any more so im wonder where I should go to get a job to help my mom pay bills.because were poor so I just want to show my mom that I care for her and help her.

Um, for the person who said that one of the answers were giving out false informtion: YOU, ARE THE ONE THAT IS WRONG!

You are allowed to work at 14 at fast-food outlets IF YOU HAVE YOUR PARENTS PERMISSION & A SIGNED NOTE ALLOWING YOU TO WORK. Otherwise, you must be 14 and 9 months.

well you should go to BK, because my friend is 14 and she has a job there and makes a pretty good amount, so dont listen to anyone yes there is liability but, hey thats what they have training for.

ok if you live in portland you guys have it good. I live in linclon and my parints own the two subways and the one in wallmart in new port. so if you can help

Um…you cannot work at Burger King, McDonalds, or the dollar store at 14. I know this for a fact. They would get in huge trouble no matter what you say. Do not give out false information to people.

Yeah because when a teenager has a job like me and im going to turn 15 years old and I need a job for my girlfriend, myself.etc

I seriousely need a job !! I have so much spair time that I start getting myself into stuff I shouldnt even get into at the age of 14 years old…

HEyy THERES ALWAyS SERViNG… iF yOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN… =]

do you know where a 14 year old can work in Portland,Oregon?

yesss…Burger King and Mcdonalds hire at age 14…and sometimes you can be a bagger at a grocery store but nothing else! Also some dollar stores hire at age 14…what I did was I went to every store I wanted to work at regardless what age you have to be!! I got hired at party fair when I was 14..and the age limit was 17..so you never know!

Hope I helped a little! Good luck!

hmm..yea im 14 im trying to get a job and I live in Odessa Texas. I want to work at Burger King or some other place thats not to tough to do. Well im not really selfish but I want an Xbox 360 and to get something nice for my mom and dad because Christmas is coming up and its always bout me and my brother and for once.. I want to get em something nice. =] help me out please? thx

I think if the person really wants to work then I say let them I mean realy you want them to be responsible thats how you do it. It teaches them how to take care of them selfs in the future. Plus if they work now they can get better jobs in the future. I really would like 4 14 year olds get a job at stores and and like McDonald’s and all that kind of stores It would be very good.

Yes you can! My son started a lawn mowing business when he was 14 years old. I had to help him at times with hauling his mower and weedeater but that rascal made about $3,000 one summer.

The best advice I could give is to do a good job and show up when you say you will. People appreciate that and will call you again and again. They will also tell their friends and family about you after they see you providing a good service.

This is the time of year to get started before all the mowing jobs are gone.

Happy Mowing!!

P.S. – Unless you can use your family mower until you build up a little money it might cost your about $300 for basic equipment. You can always find used items on Craigslist.com

i hope so, my fammily is poor ind i really need a job and im 14

Hello, Am new to this website and I have been looking for a job for ages a suitable one for me. like I wouldnt mind doing anything really as long as I can find one. anyone no any suggestions. I would appreciate it if you could help me.

yea you can get a job at a fast food resturant,but that’s all I know for sure. b-because I just turned 14 last week and I work at mc donalds.

it is harder for 14 year olds to get a job, but it is possible. you can only work at fast food establishments, and possibly camps helping out other children, younger than you.
