"Money is the root of all evil? Only poor people say that."
So, you are working on your bad habits, reading up on this site to sort out your mind set, the next step is to get a job.
NO BUTS ON THIS ONE. Work, you will need the money. If you don't need the money you aren't doing enough. If you are the kind of guy that sponges off his parents- wake up ***** boy. The is a line between having help and being supported. You need this, you NEED cash in this life.
It's just like anything else- effort goes in, good stuff comes out.
However, sometimes getting a job can be tricky. Unless you didn't know, most big stores don't "do" vacancies posters. Another big problem a lot of teenagers run into is thinking they can ask around with their friends to find somewhere with a vacancy. **** that. Your friends know **** all about the current staff vacancy status of your town.
Time to have a bit of confidence and just go into all the shops that are viable job possibilities and ASK. This is the best way to search for a job- do a job run. Take on one town at a time, moving on to ones further and further away that you can still get transport too, try towns on your train/bus line. Hit every shop, get all the forms, fill them in in a coffee shop, and hand them back the same day.
You will need to bring all the correct paper work with you- this may include passport, work permit, or national insurance number. Also, get your school dates and details written down. Finally the only other thing you'll need to do most forms is some references, get them sorted out too. Oh and an emergency number, and a pen.
Get that on a check list and get this **** done. It will get you meeting new people, get you money, get you independent, and will give you a good bit of rejection to deal with
. Seriously, most places wont have you- get over it, and do more forms.
This may take a while to come together, don't worry, just keep at it. This can be helped by creating a system for motivation and direction, which I'll deal with next.
