Need a job..but how? Help please!!

in Work & Study
Hi everyone. So recently I have become very aware of the fact that I should probably get a small job.i don't really spend much money as there aren't many things that I need to buy ( I'm 17 and my parents pay for food, bills ect) the only income I have is £15 a month from my dad and the odd money i get from selling things on online selling sites. I'm pretty open to jobs - though I don't want it to be too local as I have had problem with people at school and don't want to see them, but I could get over that. The problem I have is time. I literally have no time. My schedule is as follows:
( please note college time includes bus. So this is when I leave my house and when I get back)
Monday- 7am-6.30pm college
Tuesday -7am-6.30pm college
Wednesday- 10.15am-5pm work experience (unpaid)
Thursday-7am-6.30pm college
Friday- 7am-6.30pm college
Saturday- volunteering 3 hours ( time will vary)
Sunday- homework/studying and normally tidying up
I tend to go to bed after live chat (10pm) and after college I also do a lot of sorting and selling of items online. I sell items for myself, a couple of charity's and mums friends.
As you can see I'm exhausted. I guess I could get a job on Sunday's but I'm worried I will be too tired. Any suggestions? Thank you louisa x

.....At least your parents are paying for your food and bills etc.
You could always look for getting a job for the holiday? So a job for over Easter or over summer, that way you're not pushing yourself to do too much
Very flexible hours, paid very well, and socially was a damn good craic.
Thanks skive , I have heard that but I really can't stand the place lol. Plus the fact I'm bigger would make me feel uncomfortable. Louisa x
You're not the only one. I hate McDonalds too. Someone once told me that they're always looking for people, but I turned my nose down at it. Also I hate the trashy food! Especially their bread!
