    How about none ? You’re a teen, you just need to learn, socialize and have fun. Don’t work before your an adult.

      Ah, privilege. Parents had ok jobs. As soon as I needed sports equipment or wanted to go out to eat/pay for friends etc etc it was lawn mowing, paper route, construction from 6th grade.

        Yeah, I dunno, I wanted to work, because I know it would give me money to go do things I wanted to do. Got my first job at 15, which was the youngest you could work in NJ, and have had consistent employment ever since. Money is, unfortunately, important.

      If it’s possible to earn something voluntarily is great.
      Tyvm.

      I delivered advertisement for a marketing agency of various local businesses.
      Was the pay shit? Yes
      Did I make enough money to not be a bum and make my mother pay for a gaming pc? Yes.
