Jobs at 13 - Help please :)

[JTD1993]

What are you currently doing to get cash?

Saving my unused lunch money.. a tenner a week. at most.

I've sold a few things recently, like my old ice skates, £65, Saved money up for a year, about £105. Sold an older mobile phone, Sony ericson I think, another £20.

I've run out of stuff to sell, so sadly, it's time to grow up. Get up off my behind, and work!

Right so you currently have no steady source of income. How far are you willing to travel?

large companies are going to say no, such as tesco, since its illegal for them to employ someone who is under 16.

Best bet is to speak to your uncle, see if he can help you out.

Well, about 1/2-1 hours on a train and maybe half an hours walk. Depends on the hours, like the starting time etc.

Throw ideas at me, Ill pick a few, research them and whatnot.

Thanks to everyone that has helped so far!

yeah your going to need to speak to the normal run of the mill places that arnt going to be so sticky with the rules but unfortunately in this day and age with claims etc what they are you would need someone like your uncle to pull a few strings with the folks that deliver to him. just ask about if you wanna work you will find something and make an honest few quid. better that than being a scumbag car thief type that doesnt want a job and thinks they are owed a living.
CLAP OF THE BACK TO YA FOR TRYING TO GET OFF YOUR ASS

GOOD LUCK

Cheers mate. To be honest, I think that they go to Cash & Carry every now and again, so they don't get deliveries.

I'll have to go to a few places, or just keep waiting for someone to come out with something interesting and can be done every saturady. I've got a few weeks to look around, Ill be on holiday from 26th this month 'til 21st August. Then I'll go and get a job. Maybe a paper round for the weekdays, and helping my uncle on a sunday, Have saturday for paintballing.

(Sorry for the big chunk, I know it hurts peoples eyes! )

I might do a bit of e-baying and make a bit of money out of buying and selling. Get good marks at school, and see what I get from that. I'll have to just look for the perfect oppurtunity (SP?) and just go for it. When I'm 16, I'm sure to work at a paintball shop, Marshal, Paper round, Other jobs.

I'm money thirsty - So I have to work!

It sounds like a laugh to be honest. I did apply for a job at a local site, I'm just waiting for something back. Im sure I could welcome guests, take registration forms etc. But transport isn't the easiest thing to the site.

I wouldn't mind cleaning peoples gear, making tea, Help people ball their pods etc. But I don't think I'd get my funds from it.

Cheers for the idea!

I was thinking, how about one of those sale call centres? Would they be able to take me on? Apparently they do good wages.

I've just got no idea of what to do. Shall I just become famous and make my money that way, I'm sure you'd all want new timmys from me so I'll forget that .

The more ideas- the better!

 

[JTD1993]

So I can only work for my uncle, get a paper round and nothing more? Can I advertise for places? Say my local pb field, advertise on my t-shirt, give out leaflets, post leaflets through peoples door? I could do the paper round and leaflets at the same time, more money.

If you know anywhere that needs leaflets posting, and are paying out. Post please!
