Teenagers - The Dreaded Job
This can be put two ways, the ideal way, and the realistic way.
Ideal - work is great, you get paid lots, have fun and anything else you like!
Realistic - Work is work, it’s not always fun, up until the age of 18(Scotland), the pay is pathetic…
However, if you start working early, you’ll be prepared for later in your life and make some extra cash!
Here are some general tips for finding your job;
Apply everywhere, the more applications you put in, the more chance you have right?
There’s a recession, so don’t be picky, it’s unlikely you’ll be working in a great job
If you’re at school, it’s best to get a Saturday job, leaving you Saturday night for parties and what not - after school is also an option, but it’ll be tiring
College? Depending on the hours you attend your college, it’s advisable to go for a few days a week, I have a friend who is doing an NHC is Computing Studies at college, he works in McDonalds 3 days a week
Determination… if you can’t accept low pay, annoying hours and a busy life, don’t bother with a job
If possible, try to relate your job to what you want to do later in life - if you don’t know yet, base it around what you enjoy
Here are some ‘job ideas’;
Like cars? I do, so I work as a valet at an Arnold Clark branch.
Like horses? Work in a stables or at your local race track.
Like sport? Work in JJB or a sports centre.
Seeing the pattern?
Till jobs are great, not bad hours (can be done after school) and in general, the pay is decent, just be aware that it’s hard to get the job just now.
Being a car washer at a garage is a great Saturday job, as long as you don’t mind getting wet and cold.
Be a caddy! Being a caddy is great, you can watch golf, get paid well and most likely get a tip.
Chip shops are always taking on young people for work, behind the tills or in the kitchen, or even just washing up!
Paper boy/girl - small hours, low pay, cold mornings, early mornings…. Great yep? No - that’s why it’s easy to get this job!
If you live near a football stadium and like football, apply as a ball boy! You see free football and it’s not a bad job… just be prepared for a long waiting list and the likelihood that you’ll never get that job.
There are several reasons for getting a job so young, here’s a few;
Experience for later in life, where I work, I get free driving lessons in the car lot from some of the younger and more adventurous salesman! It can give you vital experience of what life is like as an adult. Money, come on… who doesn’t like some extra Queen Heads? If you want regular new CDs, you need a job!
Work experience - most schools do work experience with pupils once they reach 4th year, adding to this is a very valuable asset. I have my Saturday job at Arnold Clark, the article writing I do, and experience in my local primary school.
