Good luck mate. The way this country is treating its youth is a f*cking scandal. Hope you find work soon. Always remember one bit of advice " dont let the bastards grind you down".

Its hard for anyone to find work now, especially those without experience. I was surprised to see the minimum wage for a 16 year old is just £3.68 :o Something you may need to consider though to get experience.

Only Fools and horses work.

Do what you like doing most and money will come to you.

Don't become a slave! :old:

Can't help you on the jobs front Alex, but best of luck looking. Retail company's look for people from time to time. Try giving local supermarkets or shops a cv, & see where that goes, & one other thing, never give up!

Helpful advice to a young chap needing a bit of money :lol:

My best suggestion is checking for vacancies in Maaaaaaaarks and Spaaaaaaaarks (M&S), John Lewis or Waitrose simply because the pay is unbelieveable.

I was 17 and earning £6.40 an hour (part-time, alongside my studies) with no prior experience. Just need the patience to listen to a dead-end **** of a manager who's bitter at the way her life turned out in my instance.
