House Cleaner
i’m a 16yr old girl in high school still, my mum pressures me so much into finding a job and i try but i tell her it’s not easy these days for teenagers to be hired. all she does is say “you’re not trying hard enough” when all i do is go around handing out my cv to stores and searching online for availability near me. tell me why it’s so difficult! i think people should have roles open in their stores for teenagers who need training when they have the time for it.

Yea I was the same, it took me a year before I finally got a job and it's a minimum wage, low hours cleaning job. For teenagers these days it's either that or McDonalds and people wonder why we have no life skills.
