I Need Ideas

[Skittle]

ok, im only 15...well I am dying for a mag and i aheva really good deal for 300 bucks. ONLY ONE PROBLEM. I dont have a job cuz of my age and my parents wont pay any moeny for a paintball gun because they think its a waste and its not important to them like it is to me. Ne way I have lots of computer skills and know some web and graphic design. But I dont know what i can do for a job, and i get out of school in 3 days so if u have any ideas where i can get a job or know places who hire younger pll, help me out.

thanks,
Fabian

Summer Job

Better idea is to cut grass. At $15.00 a pop for about an hours worth of work is the way to go. You have to be neat and take care of the customers but you can make some serious cash in a summer. The thing about cutting grass is you work during the week and can play paintball on the weekend. Mickey D's will always work you in the evening and on weekends.

grass

thats exactly what i do, although i only work 2 hrs a week. this is enough for me to afford a major upgrade every 6 months. I may be able to get a job at my local PB shop

well, you see its pretty hard to cut grass cuz there are some stingy bastards around here but i found a job on a farm type place but i donno when i start and it may fall through ... ne way i'll do about anything i can for the mag.. besides when i get it i have to build a shrine for it and tell it how much i love it everyday, oh and i have to set candles around it....

You mean you people work actual wages and pay taxes?? I thought every teenager in high school's work was under the table. I guess not...

yeah, i used to work at a pizza place but it was hard work because it was so busy and i was a bus boy and then i didnt get paid alot like the other ppl, so quit.

anyway, try pet sitting or a dog walker

Dishwashing. It's almost always off the books and you can get some decent money. My first job was dishwashing and i started off at 6 bucks an hour. Not bad for a 16 year old i think. With the hours i put it, i was bringing home 250-300 a week. That should be more than enough for paintball.

A quitter never gets to play paintball. At 15, any money is good money. And all work is hard, that's why they call it work. If you think about it you could do any number of things to make money, you just have to be motivated.

[TheBigRaguPB4L]

Work is really only hard if you don't have anything to work for. If you can keep in your head before, during and even after work that you're working so you can play some much needed paintball, it won't be so bad. You just have to keep your focus and what you're doing it for.

"it was hard work...so I quit." Now you know why you don't have any money.

At 15 you aren't going to get paid a lot and you aqre going to have to work hard. Ask anyone here (who works) and they'll tell you that when you start working it's all about hard work for crap pay. Unfortunatly real life works like that.

no, i didnt quit because it was hard i quit b/c it was hard and i wasnt getting paid.. like i would go and waste my weekend and have to clean the place and they would only give me one or 2 days a week with about 4 hrs a day, so i was basically workiung for gas money....it sucked so bad...so i just quit b/c it was wasting my and my moms time.

like one month i only got 40 bucks..that isint even paint
