Work as a prositute :lol:

















Um... if that's not your sort of thing, I'm really not sure what's out there for 13 year olds. I'm 19 and struggling enough to find anything, I don't know if supermarkets have age limits but you could try that... or newsagents or something

you could work at a supermarket, but only like 3 hours a day 3 days a week or something like that is the law. check animal shelters and vets offices, they often hire part-time people to walk dogs, etc.

The basketball I ref is in Steve Nash Youth basketball. they pay well ($8.50 an hour for first year refs, $10 for second year, and $12.50 for reffing the 8/9 age group and older.) Maybe you know some people who play in it, or play in it yourself. Very easy to get into.

In Australia you have to be 14 and 9 months to be able to work, legally that is :cool:

I'm 16 in 2 weeks now, and gotta say its pretty hard to get a job (for me anyway, lol I have high standards). Places like McDonalds and Hugnry Jacks will always hire you, they are desperate lol

I know a lot of my friends who ref, and the money isnt that great. Plus they ref from like 10AM-3PM and then gotta play a game at like 4:30, so I decided not to ref.

It's Burger King. For some reason certain parts of Australia call it Hungry Jacks.

is this for school work experience or what? if it is, go back to your elementary school and be a T.A.. that's what i did, i helped the teacher out and on my spare time i kicked all the little kids ass in basketball.

but if you want a real job, you should just go work with your parents, or uncle whatever.. i don't think you can get a REAL job till you're 15

Lie about your age, obviously this depends on what you look like, then try for a work agency who hire out contracts a day at a time. My sister was cleaning hotel rooms when she was 14 making £40 a day.

You could also try
:arrow: Milk round.
:arrow: Cutting lawns, Car washing & Dog walking.
:arrow: Saturday Job in a Fruit & Veg Market.
:arrow: Deliver leaflets or papers(paper round)
:arrow: If you know anybody in the building trade ask if they need any laborers, they always do.


I did all these jobs between the ages of 13 n 16 at some point. You should find out what the laws are like in your country for working children.

First off, don't work unless you absolutely need to because you will have your chance to work for your entire life.

The only thing I can think of a 13 year old doing for money is a ref at a young basketball league, volleyball,. and maybe someother sports. Contact your local league place that runs the leagues and ask them :wink:

Not all of us can permit ourselves to ask Mum & Dad to buy us all the things our heart longs for.

Nopes, some of us actually work for the things we want. What an absurd idea, eh? :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

In Holland work period starts from 15 till 65, I don't understand what you're yapping about "working your entire life". You're never too young to start working.

Do what I did when I was 13 & still do at 17, fill racks in Supermarkets. Make it look all neat & tidy. :)

:lol:

No, I don't care where they put the wrong things. Doesn't happen to often either.

But I do get the chance to do the following: They ask me where something is & I'll be like I don't know & I walk off. Hehe, the amazement on their faces is amusing. :D
