JOBS FOR 16-YEAR-OLDS
Here are some job ideas for 16-year-olds:
First, apply to everywhere you can. Your chances go up significantly the more places you apply. Then, about 3 days to 1 week afterwards, go back in and see if the employer has seen your application. I cannot overstress the importance of this because employers want to hire ambitious people. If you do this, at most establishments that hire 16 year old, you should either get something along the lines of we're not hiring, or that they want to set up an interview. As you are interviewed, do not say anything that could get you in trouble, and allow them to have you take a drug test. If you do everything and say what they want to here, your home free. Good Luck!
