Teens Jobs

"That will be $1.50 please pull around to the first window", this is heard by working teens all around the world. Teens work for many reasons and some reasons are more important than others. Many teens get jobs so they can make money,learn about life, and most importantly, earn money to spend on whatever they want.

There are many other causes why teens are working jobs and these jobs vary from fast food restaurants to lawn care services. Some other reasons why teens might get a job is to earn money for the family if they are struggling to pay the rent. Another cause is having a family with a single parent that can't make payments, so the teens gets a job to help out. While some teens might have a job so they can learn about life, understand how it feels to be an adult with its positives and negatives, and also to help save up or make there college payments. Unfortunately, another reason why teens have to have a job is so they can help out themselves if they dropped out of school or if they have a child as a teen they can make money to support themselves.

The main reason why teens have jobs is to make there own money to spend it on whatever they want. When you are teen, you realize you can't always rely on your parents for money, so you decide to get a job and make your own money to do the things that you want to do. Teens have jobs so they can go to the movies or even buy new video games that you couldn't of had if you didn't have a job. By having a job you get many benefits from it; for example, on a college resume they will ask you for job experience and now you could put down where you worked. Every teen likes spending money and when it's not available from there parents they can always go to their job earnings and make themselves feel like an adult.

These jobs will definitely help teens in the future and they will also have more experience when they have to make their own decisions later on in life. Every teen should have a job at one point so they can earn there own money, have a learning experience, be on there own, and have a good answer in experience on their resume for college. So the next time you say "Will you have fries with that?", you will know that you are only one of the many teens that are saying the same thing.
