Hii. :]
I'm a 17 year old girl from the East Coast of the United States.
Although i'm young, i've been through my share of problems.
I'm not going to tell you I can answer any question, but I'll certainly try.
I don't judge people because of the fact that I don't like to be judged myself.
I'm generally a nice person, but if you give me attitude, you won't be happy with my response.
I love listening to music, etc.
I have a job & have volunteered before,
I've been through drivers ed & have my license + a car,
I'm going to be a senior next year so I can help you with high school experiences.
All in all, i'll try to help you no matter what.
I also tend to reference websites when giving my answers because then I have proof that my advice is valid.
Anyways. I'd like to end this with my favorite quote [I dunno why it's my favorite quote, but yeah. :D]
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

I love animals. Basically, anything cute and fuzzy. I'm not too crazy about lizards, snakes, and the like. Horses are my number one love. I also love dogs, cats, and birds. What are some careers having to do with animals that pay pretty decent?
You could always try being an animal trainer. :] These sites will give you all the information you need for that.

Or, if you want a job now, you could be a pet sitter. It'll help you prepare for a future job with animals. Although it may not pay as much as an animal trainer, you can still get the experience. :]
15/f. i turned 16 in september so my parents tell me that i need to get a job. ok i'm fine with getting a job and i am planning on working at the same place that my older sister works. they have really good, flexible hours and they pay well. but the only problem is that my parents go away every weekend (fri to sun) so i wouldn't have a ride to and from work on weekends. and my parents told me that i would have to walk.
the thing is that i REALLY REALLY don't want to have to walk to work. its a 20 minutes walk and i would have to cross a major street. it scares me to have to walk this alone and cross that road.
so what do i do? i would have to walk to work on weekends until i can get my license which wouldn't be until late march. so what do i do?
Maybe you could ride your bike to work because it's summer so the weather is usually good for that. People around here ride their bikes places all the time. If there's no place to put the bike or if you don't have one at all, then I'd ask your sister to drive you.
You said you'll be working at the same place as her so maybe she could bring you there, and you said the hours are flexible so maybe you could ask the manager to set your hours to match your sisters.
Good luck! :]
I'd really like to apply for a job at Forever 21, but I've never applied for a job before and I'm kind of unsure of how to do it. On their website, you can download an application and that's totally fine but how would I go about finding out if the Forever 21 near me is accepting new employees?
I mean, I can walk into the store and ask, but who would I ask? Could I just walk up to someone who works there and ask if they're hiring? Do I need to ask for the manager?
Or, could I call the store and speak to someone? Would I need to make sure I was speaking to a manager first before I ask if they're hiring? Or can I just ask whoever picks up the phone?
Is it possible to email a specific store and ask if they're hiring?
Sorry, these seem like dumb questions but they're just things I really need to know. I'm kinda nervous about the whole thing. I'd really love some advice.
Thanks!
I think your best bet would be to go to the store yourself & ask to speak to the manager. That way, the manager knows you're serious about wanting the job, and you can make a good first impression. Fill out the application you're printing out, and hand it to him when you meet with him.
To get my job, I applied online. They didn't respond for a while so my dad had me go into the store myself & talk to the manager. I'm basically pretty sure she wouldn't have even looked at my application if I hadn't done that, because a lot of people had been applying and that showed her I was really interested in the job.
I hope you get the job! :]
