Obviously the jobs that you can do are dependent on your education and previous work experience.\n\nHowever, I would say that you might make a good entrepreneur.  If you started your own business you would always be the boss (although if you borrowed money from the bank you would have to be accountable to them).  As your business expands you will be able to hire more employees and use those leadership skills, and you can use your analytical skills to find ways to improve business.\n\nThere are lots of jobs that you could consider.  A real estate agent is often able to work independently.  You could look into something "new age" like life coaching, image consulting or career consulting.  You could provide a service to people in your area, like childcare, elder care or lawn care.  Alternately, if you've always had a "great idea" in the back of your head, you could put your invention skills to good use!  Basically, just find a hole in the marketplace and do what you can to fill it.  It might help to take an evening program through the local community college on business management.

What a refreshing change! A teenager asking to work! Laws are pretty specific as to what your age range can be employed doing. Check with your local unemployment office for any openings that would allow your age. As a teenager I did the mundane (but profitable!)jobs a "country" kid could do..picked vegetables, washed cars, mowed grass, babysat my parents friends kids (be sure you can handle that kind of responsibility first and take a course in CPR and first aid usually available through the American Red Cross or American Heart Association and some 4H clubs--THIS IS A MUST), I have 5 kids, and of those, 3 teenagers. My 15 year old son talked with some of his favorite teachers and one recommended him for a job at a gym that offers a kids program. He basically helps the kids in the "kids area" and does a lot of cleaning up after birthday parties. Try talking with adults you know and TRUST. Good Luck!

For your skills, you might also want to look at computer programming, project management, marketing, and sales type jobs in your product area of expertise.\n\nIf you want to work in a retirement community, I would recommend looking of someplace like Monster.com to find out the types of jobs there are in a retirement community.  Then you can look into what you need to get a job that looks good to you.

What is a GOOD job? \n\nI would classify a good job as one that I can earn a decent wage along with one that I would really enjoy doing.\n\nI would check out the local newspaper.

Maybe put up some posters in apartment complexes offering your services to the elderly, such as taking out their trash or running errands.\n\nSome people might need dog walking services or even someone just to come and play with the dogs; or, someone might need you to clean their yard weekly if they have dogs in their backyard.  Some might need a young man to rake the lawn or mow the lawn.\n\nThink about all the things you can do and all the talents you have and the various things you've learned from your parents and grandparents.\n\nBe creative and be persistent!  See if you can do things first for people who know you so that you can build up references to offer people to show them that you are a young man of good character.\n\nGood luck!  Young people such as yourself are hard to find these days.  =)

Your never to old to make changes to your life and 50 is not old!  I suggest looking into going self employed as a trainer. I work for a training company and we are always looking for trainers (and pay them a very generous wage). You can work the hours you want to and still get satisfaction from helping others achieve their goals. Good luck in whatever you decide. Make the break it will be worth it in the end and if it doesn't work out you can always go back to teaching.Just remember,If you always do what you've always done you'll always get what you've always got.

I think working at a cinema,theatre or arts centre is a good job for that age group. Work as a steward/usher or in the box office should be easy to come by if you are good with people. One perk of working in one of these jobs is that you quite often get free tickets.

Well, talk to your parents first to see if they or someone else can provide you with dependable transportation b/c employers will have that as a top concern.  Then see with restaurants or stores will hire people your age.  You could also babysit or work for a daycare or tanning salon or office or car wash.  Just decide on what is available for you to do and go from their.  Good luck.

Study hard to get into college. Retain little knowledge.\nFinish college.\nGet a job at a company with nice perks, work for someone that's never had to work in their life making them money.\nThey wanted you to do stupid tasks like high school and college learning very little, just to make sure you could do busy work and listen to instructions, it's to prepare you for corporations.\nWork 40 years, when you're starting to break down, you have permission to live life.\n\nHave fun, sheep.

You have to find out what the rules are in your state. If you can work at 15 a good place to find employment is at a golf course. There are many jobs to do there that are fun and interesting. If you can not get a job in the workplace. Babysitting, newspaper carriers (if they stillexisist in your state) or cutting lawns are all goodways of earning extra cash. They keep you outside and you don't have to say, "Would you like fries with that?"
