I need a job

anyone know where i can apply part-time? Becauser everywhere I would want to work you have to be 18 years old to work there and i dont want to work at some fast food place.

 

What kinda work you looking for? I know some of my friends used to work at like tires plus but that was like 5 years ago things may have changed

 

Detailing cars can be fun, either for a dealership or detail shop.

 

Yeah, get a job at a dealership washing cars. I did that in HS. As for fast food, just stay away from places with fryers. They suck. Work in a sub shop!

 

Sogonerg checked with white bear subaru and you have to be 18.

 

Yeah, check out a detail shop or even a good car wash.

 

Movie theaters, grocery stores, target/walmart/kmart type places. If you arent picky, just walk into any place you see and ask for an application or if they are hiring.

 

checker or bumper to bumper would be cool. Discount on car stuff too possibly

 

i checked at auto zone and checkers you have to be 18

 

I guess you are donw to one option... Turn 18

 

i might be able to work at tintmasters in burnsville. i am still waiting to here from the guy to see how old i have to be to work there. and i also applied at best buy

 

don't do it!

I worked at Best Buy for a year.

if you're under 18, you WILL get a job as a cashier. Have fun selling 'free' magazine subscriptions and product replacement plans

no, they don't pay on commission. you're just expected to sell a certain amount of stuff. and if you don't, you don't get hours, or worse.

 

^ just because your under 18 doesnt mean you will start as a chashier. If you impress your interviwer or have sales experiance you can get a job on the sales floor. I started best buy when i was 17 and started on the sales floor. Good company to work for when you are young, especially with the discount.

 

^^ i would rather work at compusa. there you get a better discount (wholesale vs. 5% over wholesale at best buy) and also you get some commission on replacement plans. so you can actaully make money.

 

I worked at suncoast video before I was 18.

It was by all accounts an easy job that paid nothing (5.60/hr). I remember getting a whole paycheck that was like $200-$300 sometimes. That is uber lame compared to what you can make w/ college degree years later, but still, since i wasnt paying rent or anything, it seemed like a lot more money to me since it was all disposable.

Grocery stores are the #1 employer of people under 18. If you are flexible with your hours restocking at night pays more money and is generally less hassle (either store is closed, or unpopulated) so you wont be dealing with customers/register stuff.

 

hit up the marinas.
you work the gas dock and haul trash to the dumpster.
it's wicked easy.
i did it for one summer.
tips are pretty good, you get a good tan, and you see all the bikini ladies.

call tonkabay marina.
don't tell them i sent you.

 

i tried you have to be 18

 

@#$%!@#$%!@#$%!@#$%! im lookin for job t0o0 i applied many places also bastards wont call me back hahaha oh wells rite now it sucks being 17 ( still minor hahahha ) aaahhhhh!!!

 

haha, I worked at a marina too, in fort washington maryland for one summer. Some idiot with a captain's license didn't put his blowers on and blew up the entire dock I worked at while I had a day off, that was the end of that job. I was under 18 then too... Times seem to be getting tougher for the younger workers these days.

If you do work at a marina, watch out for this: http://powerboat.about.com/od/safety_education/a/fumes_explosion.htm

 

i dont see why ther let you get your license at age 16 if you cant find a good job.

 

Liabilities, experience, and Curfew, if you under 18. That's why companies prefer not to hire them. Sorry Alex...It is almost better to get paid under the table at some mom & pop restaurant, at least you get tips too...I made good $$$ when I was 15 working at a chinese restaurant in CA.

 

hmm... te popular place to work around here for youngstersis the otton bros gardenign supplies place. mostly grunt work messing w/ plants.

i would recomend shovelign snow in the winter but that isnt very applicable now. i did that for a few years. decent money but a lot of work. i think that i was making around $25/hour but i didnt have very many accounts.

 

don't wait for them too call you. you should call them after a week or so. it shows initiative and employers like that.

 

^+1 You have to call, I've got a couple of jobs because I was persistant.

 

^^Agree...That is what I did with every job I had...And now that is all I do is keep in contact with all my customers until they buy and then I just ignore them, Right SLoBaru! haha...jk

 

+1 for grocery stores....

Your almost guaranteed to find a job at one!

heck. it beats working at mc donalds

 

i might need to get a job that i dont like cuz my car isnt running right now so to fix it i need money.

 

Yeah I know how you feel

Sometimes you just have to get started for some cash, that was my
situation and now I'm making plenty for parts/service for the car and then
some...

 

i wont be able to drive it if i cant get the money but hopefully my parents can help me remote car starters are a piece of @#$%!@#$%!@#$%!@#$%!

 

what's wrong with your car? Car starter?

 

lol, thats a good one. i'm usually so out of it though, that i probably wouldn't even notice if you really did that.

what kind of remote start is it?

 

viper it just about started my car on fire today and i am not kidding. 60$ later the new starter is in but the piece of @#$%!@#$%!@#$%!@#$%! car wont start

 

GM quality products! your tranny is next gauranteed....grocery store is where its at, accept i think you hafta join that gay union which is just that, gay

 

Yep. When I worked at Cub Foods they made us join a union and pay dues.

 

Hey Subaru4 check your fuses...If you blew your starter, I'm sure you burnt your fuses as well...

 

my ex coworker is now working at rainbows overnight stockboy and gets 15 per hour, not bad

 

when I was growing up,
(in CG)
I worked at Royal Oaks Carwash (15)
and Little Ceasers Pizza (16)

both are under different management.

Then It was SA ,both CG & SPP (17) overnights!!!!

Good luck!

 

it wasnt a fuse, it was a wire that they tapped off of when they put in the system in. so when we took it out it couldnt connect the connection. and tomorrow i am going to go look at tires.

thanks everyone that tried to help.

You were right my tranny went to sh!t this morning on my way to school. It was leaking tranny fluid like crazy, i guess when it the guy who took it to the tranny shop, once he had moved the car he looked at the tranny fluid that was on the ground and it had chunks in it. It sounds like i will be getting a new tranny.
