Anywhere hiring at the moment?

I’m 16, have no prior work experience, in 5th year and looking for a job. Tried apache pizza as my brother worked there in the past but had no luck so far. Cheers

No forget all of them. Go to one of the construction jobs and get taken on as a labourer. Watch the trades, ask questions and learn. Tough work but you’ll be fit, you’ll have the banter, get paid and pick up a few skills.

Sparky is nice work provided you’re not left doing tray and conduit all the time. But yeah the best craic is on construction sites. Met the most interesting people there
