It sounds like a local business. It's 100x easier to get a job at a local business rather than a franchise such as McDonalds, Walmart, richard's, etc.

I work and own partnership of a local business so I have every authority to tell you I've never heard a more incorrect statement.

Local businesses usually keep their employees very long term, so there's next to no room for a new employee except maybe every once in a blue moon.

On top of that they discourage hiring teens who are going to quit the second they're out of school

I might be looking at getting an actual job this spring.

Never had an interview so a little nervious obviously but I think I can get one.

I got my first job when I was fourteen with one application to one place. Don't discourage him like that.
I got my first job when I was 13, on a chicken farm but still.

do not be picky about days and hours they ask you to work.

the number 1 stuffty employee that they would fire or not hire is the guy who want every friday or saturday off, and refuses to work new years or something.

I would get more than one business's application if I were you.

Of course my employer asked me if I wanted a job, so I was kind of spoon fed on that aspect.

Nice! I hope to get a temporary job sometime this year, too as a dog walker in my neighborhood! I wanna be able to buy things I like, and save up some money before I go to college.

That's your opinion though. I've had 4 jobs in my life. First one was for a local business. Got the job almost immediately. The next two were also for local businesses. All accepted my application while I was still awaiting answers from Price Chopper, Walmart, Petsmart, etc. They never got back to me once. Again, that's my opinion because I've had a lot more success getting part time jobs through local business rather than large associations/franchises.

Time to throw back to my first job.  This cute girl and I kinda had a thing that was on and off.  One evening it was really slow so we just went in the back fooled around and I got a BJ.  I was pretty pleased but she got pissed off later when she found out I had a girlfriend. :^)  TLDR - Befriend a cute girl get a BJ (Best advice)

no.

apply for a few jobs, do not concentrate on just one.
