A 14- or 15-year-old, youth cannot work:

More than 3 hours a day on school days, including Fridays;
More than 18 hours per week in school weeks;
More than 8 hours a day on non-school days;
More than 40 hours per week when school is not in session.
The child labor rules also determine where a youth can and cannot work. A 14- or 15-year-old youth may work in retail stores, food service establishments and gasoline service stations.

He or she may not work in:

Communications or public utilities jobs;
Construction or repair jobs;
Driving a motor vehicle or helping a driver;
Hazardous jobs identified by the Secretary of Labor (which will be described on the next page);
Manufacturing and mining occupations;
Power-driven machinery or hoisting apparatus other than typical office machines.
Processing occupations;
Public messenger jobs;
Transporting of persons or property;
Workrooms where products are manufactured, mined or processed;
Warehousing and storage.
The rules also specify what kind of jobs a 14- or 15-year-old can and cannot do.

The jobs a youth can do in the retail and service industries include:

Bagging and carrying out customer's orders;
Cashiering, selling, modeling, art work, advertising, window trimming, or comparative shopping;
Cleaning fruits and vegetables;
Clean-up work and grounds maintenance -- youth may use vacuums and floor waxers, but cannot use power-driven mowers, cutters and trimmers;
Clean cooking equipment, including the filtering, transporting and dispensing of oil and grease, but only when the surfaces of the equipment and liquids do not exceed 100Â° F;
Delivery work by foot, bicycle, or public transportation;
Kitchen work in preparing and serving food and drinks, but not cooking or baking (see below);
Office and clerical work;
Pricing and tagging goods, assembling orders, packing, or shelving;
Pumping gas, cleaning and polishing cars and trucks (but youth cannot repair cars, use garage lifting rack, or work in pits);
Wrapping, weighing, pricing, stocking any goods as long as the youth doesn't work where meat is being prepared and doesn't work in freezers or meat coolers.
The list above explains what jobs 14- and 15-year-olds can do in retail stores, food service establishments and gasoline service stations.

But there are some jobs that a youth may not do:

Baking;
Boiler or engine room work, whether in or about;
Cooking, except with gas or electric grilles that do not involve cooking over an open flame and with deep fat fryers that are equipped with and utilize devices that automatically lower and raise the baskets in and out of the hot grease or oil;
Freezers or meat coolers work;
Loading or unloading goods on or off trucks, railcars or conveyors;
Meat processing area work;
Maintenance or repair of a building or its equipment;
Operating, setting up, adjusting, cleaning, oiling, or repairing power-driven food slicers, grinders, choppers or cutters and bakery mixers;
Outside window washing, or work standing on a window sill, ladder, scaffold or similar equipment;
Warehouse work, except office and clerical work.
Remember, the youth may work for a parent in a solely-owned non-agricultural business except in manufacturing, mining, and hazardous jobs (which are listed on the next page).

15 is a great age for making money! Now you're old enough (in Canada, at least--I don't know about the US laws regarding that..) to get a job!

At almost any age there's always McDonalds. However, a slightly less greasy choice is always Dairy Queen. You have to take a look at your interests and what you can put up with at a job. Look into it, find out how much you'd be paid, and make a resume. Even if you don't have any work experience, you can put volunteer work on there, etc. Look for local jobs in smaller businesses for a more tightly-knit environment, or look at bigger corporations (such as Cineplex) for jobs that involve more people.

If you don't like the idea, get a paper route! Its great exercise, and its a very steady job--you know in advance what your schedule is and it never changes! Good luck finding a job!

Mow lawns , work on a farm

paper route, cut grass, garden, run errands

You don't need money. What you need is an education. Start with learning how to write properly.

This is your first step towards self reliance. Moms usually have limited funds to run home.

When I was of your age I use to work at my dads factory during summer holidays to make some buks and ofcourse learned many things there.

You can work at convinent stores, help neighbours in lawn mouving land scaping, make candles, car wash, sell news paper, work at fast food etc.

be a part-time waiter/waitress

Local restaraunts will hire 15 year olds as bus boys, or in the summer you can go to lanscaping companies to mow lawns, you can go to the city, and ask what summer jobs they are hiring for. Sometimes you can get a job in a park doing activites for kids.

you can try to get a job at a local store near by. or talk your mom into helping you find a job... moms can always help {most of the time} try baby sitting if you can stand the kids

part time restaurant server?

You can get a job when you're 15. Just get a work permit from your school office and go apply for jobs. (Grocery Stores, Restaurants, Movie Theaters, etc.)

Hope that helps!
