Need some help !!

What are some examples of weekend jobs which teens can do !???
Work at a part-time job at a supermarket, a cafe, a hairdressers (washing hair, sweeping etc) or online tutoring! Perhaps for the 11+ or for GCSEs (depending on if you’ve taken them!)

Hope that helps :smile:

I worked at my local theme park as a teen but… I doubt that applies to everyone! 😜

I'm assuming you are 16 or over.
If so you can work in shops, supermarkets, fast food places, cafes, restaurants, cinemas, touristy type places etc etc

Most jobs in cinemas are available for age 16 and over. Selling tickets, selling snacks and drinks, checking tickets on the way into the film etc etc. The usual stuff.

I don't really want customer interaction though. I'd feel awkward doing that :/

I was looking at Packing jobs, they seem relatively stress-free.

Warehouses etc mainly require you to be over 18.
