Jobs for 16 Year Olds at Burger King

A good job for 16 year olds is working at Burger King. I have loved their food since I was little and now I am working at the restaurant just down the block from me. I love my hours and my manager. If you are off in the summer it is better to try to get a morning shift or evening shift. The lunch rush can get out of hand and people get snappy when they are hungry with a little bit of time to grab a bite to eat.

No you will not be "paid" in the sense of bringing home hundreds of dollars, but I bring home over $250 every two weeks and my allowance was only $35 a week, when my mom could afford it. You get work experience for future jobs and if you are luck you will be on duty with a fun crew, which makes the time fly by.

Oh yeah, don't try to give your friends free food either. This is a big problem since I work so close to home. But I am not willing to get fired for you to get away with not paying for a BK stacker or cheesy tots. It's not worth it.
