Give Me Job Ideas Please. I need money, and I need a job. I'm 13, so there is not much I can do. Please give me ideas. Don't say pocket money or paper run.

* Milk run - getting up early and helping the milkmen?

* Fruit/Veg processing - several farms employ youngsters like yourself to pick and pack strawberries, mushrooms, stuff like that.

* Leaflet/Phonebook drops - Like a paper route except you can do it at night.

* Gardening - Visit the old folks and ask them if they need their grass cut, weeds dug out, general tidying etc.

* Space clearing - Ask local shops and small businesses if they need anyone to clear out stock rooms or do the usual thankless chores that even office juniors won't do!.

* CD compiling - get all that freeware from your PC, like the freebie games and apps you download, and stick them all on a CD and charge a couple of bucks for your trouble. You could sell them to school friends, neighbors etc.

' Fruit/Veg processing - several farms employ youngsters like yourself to pick and pack strawberries, mushrooms, stuff like that.'

Funnily enough, there's a reverse around here. Get a 'real farm expirience' for your children! Only $80 to three days of amazing farm fun!

In other words, get free labor and $80 on the side...

The job I'm doing, heheh.

I'm still an intern though, and I owe snake dinner in L.A.

You don't get paid, well you get paid in copies of games
(though I havn't gotten my reviewers copy yet)

I could just sell those, and make some $$.

Hey, I like that idea . I don't think anyone can say I don't write fairly well; review quality, I don't know, though, and I don't know if I'd be the most unbiased person to pick. Oh well
