i dont want to work at a fast food place because thats what most teens do, an i really dont want to work there.
at 15 your choices are limited and you should not be so picky if you want to work. fast food restaurants are one of the few businesses that are willing and able to work around the limited schedules minors have available. different companies have different policies about hiring minors so just apply the worse thing that can happen is they say no.
when you go dress neat, clean, and appropriately for the business, be polite and ask for an application and the appropriate time to bring it back. you will need references so talk to teachers, clergy, coaches, anyone you have done casual labor for, friends parents etcetera be sure to ask if you can use them as a reference and let them know to expect calls from prospective employers.

babysitting jobs are common. my friend also has a job at a clothing store, and she's fifteen, and we live in Michigan. check and see if your school has a job board.
