Jobs for a 14 yr old...real jobs...no babysitting, and NO FAST FOOD! in utah please.?
you could work at a clothing store you like, this way you get discounts.
Reply:Check local amusement parks, water parks, zoos, or a clothing store where you really like to shop... Depending on the working age laws in your area, those would be the most fun... If you're gonna work all summer, you might as well enjoy it!!!
Reply:do the same jobs you did for your parents for your neighbors:
yard work, cleaning etc.
Reply:some places dont really hire 14 year olds, but you could get a dog walking job...i earned $400 a week doing that (i had to walk alot of dogs) i charged $10 a half hour....worked out great!
Reply:It's illegal to hire you at 14!
Reply:How about tutoring kids? Help with reading, math, science? Or if you have people with pets how about pet sitting?
Reply:Well since you are only 14 you may want to first(and im sure you've heard this before) check the Utah labor laws to BE SURE, that it's LEGALL for you to start working. Then you should try checking to see what age local places (e.g. Grocery Stores or Resturants). Then if its legall for you to work, and some places hire, CALL THE PLACES, before putting in an application. TRUST ME you will save valueable time. Simply call ,and if you heard from what can possibly be an irrelavent source, ask if they hire teens at the age of 14. You will probably get 1 of two responses:
Yes,(and they may continue on...or Yes- but we are not currently accepting applications/looking for help)
or
No,(we don't hire at 14)
After doing this which ever places give you the response you want(which is probably yes, and they go on), try putting in an application, and HOPEFULLY- you will get a call saying they want to interview you, and from their your own actions and behavior, and etc.. will probably determine whether or not you get the job.
Good Luck!
(btw: you may want to try a fast food place, they job may not be too great but they pay may be worth it.)
Reply:legally you could not work, due to the minimum working age being 15-16 years of age, i suggest you check the utah labor laws page and make sure that you are first of age to work
but otherwise, check around at your local school district for little jobs such as secretarial jobs and such.
Reply:I think the best job for someone your age that doesn't involve fast food or babysitting would be to go into business for yourself
1. dog walker or dog sitter
2. house cleaner
3. cut grass or landscape
4. you could sell stuff on ebay or other auction site (some people even pay for others to list their stuff on these sites)
most department stores and restaurants require you to be at least 15 so maybe you should try volunteering you may find a job that way as well and if not you'll still gain valuable experience
Reply:Why would your mom say no fast food? That is one of the best places to work when you are young. McDonalds has a great training program and they watch out for younger employees.
Good luck! :)
Reply:Well you're not old enough to have a real job yet.. 15 is the minimum age.
Reply:I live in Utah.
You can work at 14 in certain jobs. But only 4 hours a day on school days.

This is the link that tells you the types of jobs you are allowed to have. I would check with floral companies. We always had 14-15 year olds that would cut flowers and clean up ext. Answer the phone to take orders. It would probably be a minimum wage job, but we were always looking for people to do it.
Of course this was when I was 19 and that was 17 years ago, but im sure it hasnt changed. I started doing that when I was 17 and was a designer in a year and became a master florist in 2 years. Before I graduated high school I was making 15 bucks an hour. As I said that was 19 years ago. Call them all I think you could get a job.
Good Luck. Thats the best advice I can give you, its a nice safe enviroment and you work in A/C all day. Have to keep the flowers cold.
Reply:get married to a mormon guy. theyre usually successful ith money and have like 100 wives. i wished i lived in utah.
Reply:try a general store, like a clerk or something. I heat thats a good pre college job
Reply:i noe how u feel....i think u shud try ta get a job in stores like grocery stores or like a clothing store and start out wit the little things like clothing the manacins (i dont noe how u spell dat lol) then u can work yr way up....
Reply:secritary there isn't that much espically since your 14
Reply:When I was 15 I got a job at a tourist place - whitewater rafting camp. Otherwise I'd say cut grass for people and stuff like that. My g/f's little brothers make money by just saving all the cans their family drinks from and recycles them.
Best bet for a "real" job would most likey be a seasonal place. I'm not sure if places hire bus-boys that young at restaurants by that's worth looking into as well
Reply:I didn't know that 14 year olds could have a "real job"
I suggest a paper route
Reply:Some youth camps might hire at 14 for camp counselor/ junior camp counselor positions. Usually these are during the summer months. Other possibilities are bagging groceries/stocking somewhere if you can find a store that will employ younger than 16. Good luck finding a job :-)
Reply:how about a paper round .i do one of those and it gives good pay. its sort of hard work though. or you could do jobs for other people like a car washing service. you could work at the local old peoples home. mybee....
Reply:help in a shop see if you can stack shelves or use the til. that okaii?
Reply:This site can make you a lot of money no matter your age. You can make $200 to $2000 monthly and quickly.

Reply:Wow you are lucky I am the owner of this one computer software company, and you can work in the mail room 8$ an hour what do you say. Just give me a call at 1-800-Inatech.
Oh one more thing, I was just bullshitting you, there aren't any real jobs for kids your age, just grow up, and then we will talk about getting you a job.
Reply:umm i dont know im 14 and i got a job this summer working as a camp councelor up at my school. we had like a little day camp for little kids. its basically just baby sittin a lot of kids
Reply:work at a mall so you can get discounts and buy ur girlfriend something nice and say u bought it for full price ( if she asks ) lol best answer me
Reply:Here's a short list of jobs which you can create to generate income:
1. Learn calligraphy so that you can provide handwritten invitations and thank you notes to prospective wedding parties, birthday celebrations, etc. Seek out clients through wedding planners at nearby churches and temples. A starter calligraphy kit usually runs around $20 and anyone can easily pick up this skill. The going rate is usually $1 per hand addressed item.
2. Become a "poser" who assists wedding photographers in setting and arranging various individuals in group and single photographic positions. "Posers" carry around a sketch book of various sitting and standing poses which consists of onion skin overlays of various wedding pictures bound in albums. Again, contact local wedding photographers and wedding planners, accordingly. The hourly pay is around $10-$12 per hour and you are often invited to attend all dining activities.
3. Seek from your neighbors a gardner position which involves planting, weed removal, plant/tree trimming, light brush clearance. You will be using the neighbor's equipment and tools. Again, do not represent yourself as a lawn mower since there are any number of safety issues involved. A door-to-door solicitation of surrounding neighbors is required and you can charge between $6 to $9 per hour.
4. Offer policing/removal or clearance of trash services to surrounding neighbors which involve trash pickup within nearby residential area. Limit the extent of pickup to small areas and be aware that there are no hazardous terrain or elements involved in this process. Again, a door-to-door solicitation of neighbors is in order. You can charge between $6.75 to $7.50 per hour.
5. Acquire a set of window cleaning tools [a bucket, liquid window cleaner, sponge, squeegee, handle with an extension and a small step ladder] and solicit local businesses for your window cleaning services. However, be careful to limit the height of the window cleaning to no higher than one story. Charge $1 per window panel.
6. Become a proxy/stand-in for neighbors to allow delivery of goods and packages to your home/apartment. Acquire the authority to sign any receipt of incoming packages as an accepting neighbor. Charge $1 per each package handled by you.
7. Consider becoming a restaurant-cafe customer liaison by using your cell phone at restaurants-cafes to coordinate with the hostess to keep track of waiting customers. Whenever there's a very long period of time to activate a waiting list, you want to offer the restaurant your services so that customers do not have to stand around for any lengthy period of time. And when their name/assigned number comes up; you can call the upcoming customer's cell phone to tell them that they can return to the restaurant and be served. The call back fee is usually around $0.50 cents on a per head basis. For example, a couple would be charged $1.00 while children under 6 would not be charged. Placement of a plaque which outlines your fee schedule near the hostess station is sufficient to garner attention of prospective customers who will value your services since they can do other activities outside of the restaurant -- often beyond the range of any inhouse paging system. You realize that everyone has a cellphone and why not take advantage of the connectivity to make the diner's experience worthwhile. The restaurant will also appreciate the added service you are providing as a customer liaison.
8. Why not become a paid feeder servicing the disabled at nearby nursing, convalescent, assisted living/care centers and hospitals. It involves feeding food to patients who are unable to feed themselves. The starting rate is $8.00 per hour. The only downside is that one has to take precautions to wash one's hands after each feeding. A posting of your services [by a business card or flyer] on a reviewable bulletin board would be enough to generate customers. The paid feeder position is one of the fastest growing occupation at this time.
Good luck!
