Grace is Sufficient Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 The title says it all - Can anyone suggest places a fifteen year old boy can look for jobs? We're in Ohio, in case it varies from state to state. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamom3 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Kroger, Publix, Ingles...if you have any of these stores...Walmart Chick-Fil-A How about cleaning tables at a restaurant. I know they have passed a law here.. that if the child is under 17 they can only work until 7pm. I am not sure if that is for the summer months, too. I am not sure about Ohio laws but thought I would give you some ideas. How about babysitting,cutting grass, working on a farm or helping an older couple around their house.

mcconnellboys Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Here in Lexington, Kentucky, Chick-fil-A and Sonic both hire fifteen year olds. Chick especially likes homeschoolers..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmegan Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 It depends on the state... my understanding is that in Massachusetts they can pretty much only work as supermarket baggers or cart collecters. Summer might afford other opportunities: an assistant at a summer camp or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Try a Bowling Alley. ETA That's not a comment about Ohio! My niece works at one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth in OH Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Few places in our OH town will hire 15 yo's. The pool concession stand is one, and the Dairy Queen is another. For other jobs, there are plenty of older kids to fill them, and those kids don't have any restrictions on work hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cin Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Some of the kids from our church, if homeschooled, work in childcare at our church (boys too!). Also some of our kids work in church daycares; limited hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
