well all i can say is, if fast food places wont take you, try a factory job

eeehhh i hate to say that cause they are horrible to have
im going to have to get one after school, my dad works at one, im planing to work there (thats if its still there when i get there)
either go to jobs where family is at, to get a good word in for you. OR personally bug a place to hire you until they do. Giving them paper only works so far.
some places onl hire the first few pieces of paper on the top of the stack.
If all else fails, go to workone or peoplelink or any place that searches for jobs for you (not saying you should stop looking when you do this, you still should)
thats all i can say, im having the same trouble to find a local job, out of towns the only place to get one, i can do that until schools over with
