    Jobs are hard to come by, especially for somebody so young.

    i'd say it'll be impossible unless you know someone who is the boss/owner of somewhere.

    I paid him good money, I don't get why he's still complaining about it.

    Check the Galway advertiser. Some stuff in there looks a bit shifty, but he might get lucky and pick up a paper run or something like that.

    you could try to get a job at events. They sometimes take younger people. When i was 15 i worked for events ltd the parking company at the races. The money was pretty good and all you have to do is direct traffic. Not the most glamorous job but its better than nothing. Also lots of the hotels look for extra help race week.

    Maybe somewhere in the farm outside of Galway? I heard that some farmers are looking for extra workers during summer.
