Was my first job years and years ago, it's not a job you can really get away with being a moody teen though, the suburban Karen's in the places where Dave's are do not put up with attitude and will try to get you fired if you don't smile at them.

This. Not to mention they create a huge mess around the shop. From the people that go there that don't know how to park/don't park in a crosswalk to the amount of garbage left around the shop itself as they refuse to provide a garbage can. When they do a donut/donut hole with one of those pipettes they are littered around up and down Wickenden and Ives. They also refuse to clear the sidewalks during snowstorms except for a small spot in front of their door.

If you want to get into the trades, some people will hire you as a laborer (sweep the floors, set up my tools, etc.) My brother worked in a body shop during summers when he was your age. I worked on a private farm as a teen, and I did maintenance at a summer camp. As far as work for after school? Try a restaurant or fast food. But put your education first, no matter what.
