Make up a good resume and I do mean MAKE UP. Other then that someone you know would need to hook you up. Personally I would just lie about my age and make up a ID for that purpose if need be. Few people will hire anyone under 18 for anything. Work the system and do what you need to do. You seem dedicated and determined and that is good… more so then many 21yr olds I know. Sometimes you have to work around the system.

ew i worked at wegmans when i was 15-17. it was fucking misery. and the scholarship is only like $1000. that doesn’t even cover a semester at ecc.

get a job at a pizza place. you can fuck off and have fun when your at work, like youre supposed to do when youre 16. not have motherfuckers breathing down your neck all day because they’re 36 and still working at fucking wegmans.

1. where exactly have you applied
2. You have proven a time and again that you dont have a lot of automotive knowledge
3. Like its said in everyother of your “i need a job threads” the chance of you getting a job doing anything with cars is very slim to none because no shop will trust a 16yr to work on cars.
4. You keep saying you got cousins that work at shops, why not get one of them to get you a job?

I lold.

I worked alone at all times. I had minions of little kids under my control. One call and I had people bringing me whatever I wanted. Bam! Steak for me.

It depends where you work. I did seafood, and it ruled. I stood around and talked to customers. It was great, and I ate so much goddamn food it turned me into a fatty…
