Default Getting a higher paying job as a teen..

Well, i'm 16, work at a grocery store. It's work and i make about $150 a week, but it's just not right for how much i work. I have alot to offer i guess, i'm pretty good with computers, but yeah, i tried to get a job like that, didn't work out. It'd be nice to make more than $6.55 an hour, like, maybe $10+? Suggestions?

How about you get a better job? $150 a week is fucking slave wages.

Can you get a job in a warehouse? I unloaded trucks when I was in college and was at $15.60 when I left that job. For someone with no education that is probably one of your best options.

DAMN $15.60 an hour? That's pretty fucking nice. I would gladly work 30 hours a week for that. I still have to go to school, but i'm in pretty good shape.

Job market is very tough now a days.

Try civil service stuff. Town offices, libraries, etc. They're not cutting jobs.

Good luck. I'm workin for $7.15, minimum wage. It's really the best that I, a 17yr old, can find.
