The adults around you don’t expect anything more from you than for you to be a teenager. When I was a teenager, I spent a lot of time comparing myself to others. Because many teenagers are smarter, more diligent, accomplished, friendly, etc. that no one would ever want to pick me. When really all anyone wants from you is for you to be on time, polite, and ready to learn. They’ll figure out something for you to do. Every adult around you was once a teenager who knew nothing until someone showed them how to do a job.




County/state work. Check your local listings. My local jail, probation, court records hire people every week. I live in a big hospital area and our hospitals are also always hiring. You should at least consider talking to their HR and asking which community college certificate would be a good investment to get a job.
