<prompt> Human: I just turned 16 and want to make some money of my own, Are there places where I can get a part time job that pay in cash and dont require a permit from my school? Edit: I live in California  <response>: Unless youre making 20 here and there from a friend or something never work under the table. We have labor laws in place for a reason. You work under the table and theres nothing stopping your boss from doing illegal shit to you. Especially since you live in CA. Here its law that if you work overtime you get paid time and a half. If youre working under the table that doesnt apply. Just look around for legitimate jobs. That work permit from school actually protects you. It does things like limit when you can and cant work to prevent it from interfering with school.
