You could also try to be an intern for one of the companies you would like to work for.  If you don't know of a place where you would like to work, get out and look. As for being lazy, that's something you are going to have to work on.  Don't ask people to help you get "unlazy."  The only person that can really help you get a move on is yourself. You cannot earn money without putting forth work and effort.  So just get out there and try.  You can do it if you just go for it. Good luck! amesballa Posted at 12:47 pm on Jan. 16, 2008 Post from this position was omitted due to content violations ak mypayday Posted at 8:33 pm on Jan. 5, 2008 I can help you out if you need to make some quick cash. dragonking Posted at 6:09 am on Jan. 4, 2008 Thanks for nothing!!  LW has gotten to be good for almost nothing as time has went on!!  Want don't people help anymore? Mazy Posted at 6:09 am on Jan. 4, 2008 I don't know, I'm 17 and haven't had a job yet either. My mum suggested getting voluntary work so at least you get experience, you could maybe try that?
