In U.S. Laws are 15-17 can work 4-7 on school days, With either minimum wage or below. However, on weekends or holiday breaks they can work 8 hours which adds onto there pay check. So I suggest just waiting till summer, but It's good to get your start. I'm 15 turning 16. I make 6.50/hr. 4 days a week and both weekend days.

Uhmm yeah I'm 16 I work around 30 hours a week 3-10:15 most nights for above minimum wage . ^^^ that guy doesn't know what he's talking about.

You do realize it says it right on the **** work permit right? And I do know what I'm talking about. And besides It work at a restaurant. Besides, 3-7 on weekdays is right, how in the world would you be able to concentrate on school if you get home and go to work till 10:15.. You sir have no idea what your talking about.

I'm 16 I work 8-12 on school nights
