Well, I live in ATL Georgia, and I'm not sure if you have these same places around your area, but I'll give it a shop
-Bruster's::Great Icecream shop where a lot of teens work.
-Life guarding:: as long as you can swim and handle the responsibility, life guarding is usually 15 & up. I was actually talking to a life guard today about it and he said he really liked it!
-Chick-Fil-A:: great chicken sandwich shop that gets a lot of custumers. It's usually 14 & up.
-Babysitting:: always a great career. lots of money and fun times with kids.
-Pet sitting:: same as babysitting lol.

i dont know about in your community, but in mine, you have to have the house numbers clearly on the curb, visible. where i live, its up at a $200 fine if its not up to code.

my friend and i go around, and ask people if they would like theres done. We charge $10 per house, which if you explain the fine, people gladly do (check on codes and stuff in your neighborhood).

If you do it you will need;
White spray paint
Black spray paint
Number stencils (seperated, large)
a bucket you carry supplies
a zippered pouch to carry money
change to start with if people dont have $10
and a friend :)

if you decide to do this, i can explain how to if ya need :)

GOOD LUCK!

Below are a few job options. Some of them you might not be able to do and some you will be able. The job is in capital letters and the description is in lower case. Ill put a few websites you can check out.





A CLEANING SERVICE. Maybe you hate doing your chores at home, but getting paid for doing them is completely different! You could offer complete housecleaning services, or specialize in one or more areas, such as attic/basement/garage cleanups.

A YARD MAINTENANCE SERVICE. There is always something that needs to be done…mowing lawns and weed control in the spring and summer, raking leaves in the fall, and shoveling snow and planting for the spring in the winter.

A CAR-DETAILING SERVICE. With so many people working multiple jobs and having such busy lifestyles, very few people have the time to really take care of their cars -- and you could offer a weekly or monthly service of washing, waxing, vacuuming, etc.

A PET SITTING SERVICE. Typically more of a summer business when people tend to go on vacation, but you might be able to have a year-round business by offering pet walking, bathing, cleaning, etc. services.

A PC TUTOR/WEB SITE DEVELOPMENT SERVICE.Are you a whiz with computers and the Web? Well, many adults are not, and you could make a good business helping people learn to use PCs and develop Web sites for their families -- or for their businesses.

A CATERING SERVICE. Do you enjoy cooking and baking? In these busy times, if you can provide a service that offers well-cooked meals, you could do quite well.

A PAINTING SERVICE. If you have some experience --or there is a few of your friends that want to go in business with you -- you might consider a painting business. People are always renovating…and you could paint exteriors in the nicer months and interiors during the colder months.

AN ERRAND, MESSENGER, OR DELIVERY SERVICE. This idea works best in larger cities where there are more people and public transportation, but these are busy times and people need help with all sorts of errands.

AND EDUCATIONAL TUTORING SERVICE. If you have expertise in one or more areas -- music, foreign language, math and science, or others -- you could offer tutoring sessions to children, teens, and adults in your neighborhood.

AN ONLINE WEB BUSINESS. If you are a master at creating Web pages, perhaps what you need to do is brainstorm a concept for an online business -- where your potential customers can come from anywhere in the world, not just in your local neighborhood. (See our Web Resources Page for key information about developing a Website.)

A FREELANCING SERVICE. If you are truly gifted in a certain field, such as writing, drawing, or photography, consider starting a freelancing business where you sell your wares to various businesses and media outlets. (Read more about a freelancing career.)
