Can you do any of these jobs listed above at the age of 16?

No one is going to go through the trouble of training you/putting you on payroll to stick around for 2 weeks. You'd be better off going door to door and mowing lawns.

i dont have any lawn equipment for doing that, and plus everyone in my neighborhood has their lawns done professionally. My cousin lives up in jacksonville tho, and his dad bought him all this lawn equipment, and he makes a lot doing that while he attends college

OP: Good luck finding anyone to hire you for a week or two. No matter what you do. Maybe look into signing up with a temp agency or something.

Agreed, a temp agency will be his best bet. No company will hire a 17 year old with no experience for $20 an hour and only for 2 weeks.

when i was 16, i used to referee basketball, soccer, and flag football for my local YMCA. there were some really cool guys that i got to meet there, and i had a blast. i only made $7 an hour, but i get a free membership every year(which saves me like over $200), and had a really good experience doing it.

My plan for this summer, making business cards and everything. Hoping to get around 20 yards a week at 25 a pop, $500 untaxed a week for 20 hours of work, not bad. Could even get a second, night job.
