I'm 15 and I really don't know where to look for a job. I could really use some suggestions. I would rather not hear about babysitting, mowing lawns, etc. I just would like to know if anyone knows any good places i should go to that will hire at my age. I live in Florida if that helps. THANKS!!

Apparently they work with you on hours and stuff and they give you good training. (That's what I've heard from the Chick-Fil-A in my area, so I would assume they are all like that.)
At Christmas time, there are places like Pack & Mail that do gift wrapping. Department stores do that too. Anyway, I had a few friends work doing that type of thing when they were 15. So if you can't find a job until then, it's worth a shot. [ uisforukelele's advice column | Ask uisforukelele A Question ]

You can do the simple jobs like babysitting for friends and family. [You can charge more for more kids the more troublesome they are]
Walk dogs of friends. [The more dogs at once the more money you get! ;)]
Mow lawns in the summer.
Rack leaves in the fall.
Shovel snow in the winter.
All jobs people hate. =]
Get homemade fliers and put them around the neighborhood.
For old people give them the fliers. They are old and can't go far =].

Sorry I know you said not babysitting and such, but you can make some pretty good money there. Other than that, the only place I know that hires 15 year olds is McDonald's.
