Well, have your parent(s) check your state's website for work age - you may be able to get a part-time job. You could maybe get a paper route, or since the weather is getting nicer out (I don't know where you live), you could offer to cut lawns - doing a really good job will get more money and referals to cut other people's lawns. And, if you do the lawns long enough - you could turn it into a business. If there are elderly in your neighborhood - offer to pick up light groceries (milk, bread...) for them, take pets for walks, do yard work in the warm months, shovel snow in the winter. Ask parents if there's any work around the house, outside of regular chores, that you could help with. I'm sure you are a resourceful kid, and I've given you some ideas for you to build on.  Good luck!

I started working when I was fourteen. A lot of places will not hire  you when you are thirteen, and if you have to buy a car because your  parent s won't buy you one, then you need to start saving at 14

Summer camps are the best work for minors.  Otherwise you could try an ice cream shop or babysitting.

You'll probably need a work permit, and you can get one from your school...see the counselor for one; and your parents or guardians will need to sign it.  Try the refreshment stand at your local park or swimming pool.  Or try the local newspaper for an available paper route.  \n\nOr you can do what I did when I was 14...I loaded up car washing supplies onto my brother's wagon, and travelled all over the neighborhood and washed cars (I just used their garden hoses).  I made a lot of dough, and it was all tax free!  I even made flyers and homemade business cards to hand out.  Good luck, I hope you have a profitable summer.

GO to a temporary service, you can have a job in just a few days, sometimes in just one day, this will get you by until you get something more permanant.

I'm working at a pet groomers shop, and I get payed 8 dollars an hour! A list of good jobs you can get (I'm your age, so these are REAL jobs you can possibly get!) \n\nPetsitting and babysitting (you can make your own fees for these jobs)\n\nGarden Nursery\nPet store/grooming shop\nBowling Alley\nDog walking (make your own fees)\nSome fast food restaurants will hire you!\n\nThat's a list of possible places. Also, check with your school district...they will have a sheet of paper listing the complete job options you have. That's what I did in my town's school. Good luck!

It depends on how under-aged you are. Some places around here hire summer help at 14 years old. You could always offer to do housework for friends and family. You don't want to go up to people you don't know, but it is generally safe to assume that your parents wouldn't direct you somewhere unsafe. \nYou could clean, rake leaves, shovel...\nYou could also get a paper route. They hire real young for that. Our paper boy is like 8.

Not many hire 15 year olds.  Some are grocery bagging jobs and fast food places, but more and more places don't even want to hire people until they are 18, and the ones who do hire teens usually want 16 year olds or older.  You can try going to fast food places or grocery stores and asking.  Good luck with that, if you do.  You should also see if your school is having a job fair or career fair.  Ask your guidance counselor.  If all else fails, go door to door and ask if people would pay you to help clean.  Save money  and get a mower and hedge clippers and expand to doing yard work.  You might also try babysitting.  While you are at it, check to see if any booths at nearby flea markets or small "mom and pop" stores need help.  You could get a job moving boxes or sweeping floors.  I still advise working for yourself, though-- you can make your own hours, for the most part.  Meanwhile, learn about a trade you could do now.  A pair of twin guys from Antiques Roadshow were collecting antiques and re-selling them when whey were kids.  Good luck with whatever you try!

No_nickname made a very good suggestion, about babysitting or dogsitting, as a first job, until you're old enough for regular employment. This would only work if you truly like children or animals, but if you do, it is a great way to gain references for your resume later on. If you are reliable, the families you work for will be happy to recommend you for job openings they hear about, maybe even in their own business!\n\nMy youngest daughter babysat when she was your age, and used to find creative ways to keep the children busy, instead of telling them to just watch tv. She played games with them, did crafts, etc., and the kids always asked their parents to call her instead of other sitters, because they loved the attention. Think of it as the beginning of 'networking'! Good luck.\n\nMy first job was taking care of animals on a farm.\n\nI just noticed that you said that 'neighborhood jobs don't work where you live'... could you explain a bit? (Use the Add Details button below the question) and I'll try to think of some more ideas that might be suitable if I understand the situation.\n\nEdited to add: You do have some limitations on what's available, for sure! But you sound very motivated, and that's a good quality to have; it will help you to succeed in whatever you do.\n\n Some entry-level types of work might include:\n1.  Stocking shelves in a grocery store, or cleaning the showcases, etc. when the store is closed (a surprising amount of work happens on Sunday so store is ready for customers on Monday).\n2. Cleaning cages at a veterinary clinic or animal shelter (the latter may not be paying work... how badly do you need the income, vs. the job experience?\n3. Kitchen helper at a nursing home or other facility: peeling potatoes, clearing tables, loading the dishwasher,etc.\n4. At a newspaper office, getting the weekly advertising flyers sorted to go in peoples mailboxes.\n\nThere are lots more, depending on the size of your community. You need to figure out what kind of work suits you best, and apply for that first. Don't take something you absolutely hate. Keep your ears open, and if you see a business that appeals to you, ask to speak to the manager when the place isn't too busy. Ask if they have any part-time beginner-level work. Bring your resume. Also ask the older teens whom you know, which employers are good to work for, because it's better to know this in advance. Some bosses are awful to work for, and have a high turnover of staff for that reason; that's why they are always hiring!\n\nThat's all I can think of at the moment.

Good for you.  Your best bet would probably be babysitting.  Why not try a paper route or dog walking?

how bad do you want to go?  got anything you can sell?  video games? cds? otherwise, you've got till april, that's not impossible.  at 14, you can't do too much, but try asking your folks for money if you agree to do certain tasks (especially things you don't usually do), or get a job babysitting or walking dogs (ask your neighbors if there is anything they need done too).

The best job you could ever ask for is babysitting. It's easy and fun, especially if you can tolerate children. It pays a lot of money, too - often much more than store or restaurant jobs. You could be a full-time or part-time job, and the nice thing is, there are no taxes, so you'll be getting every penny you earn.\nNo experience? No problem. Just mention that in your ad, and offer to have a couple free training days. But usually "experience" is relative term. If you're babysitting babies, then you need it. But if they're like 5 or 6, then you just have to play with them.\nAfraid your friends will make fun of you? Oh well. See who'll be laughing when you have money and they don't.\n\nDon't like children at all? You can also be a house-sitter, although that's harder to find. You can be an assistant to the elderly. Or you can be a pet-sitter. All of these are slightly harder to find, but it's the same general concept. \n\nIf you like dogs, start your own small doggy daycare or something. \n\nHope this helps!
