Can't work fast food because there is a minimum age for insurance purposes to work near any cooking appliances. You also can't work any gas station because you are not old enough to sell alcohol. You can try department stores but with the way this economy is you're not likely to get hired there either. There are literally hundreds of applications for each opening filled with many adults that will work all hours of the night while a child only 14 like yourself can only work certain hours, and has tons of restrictions. Basically, wait till you are 16.
14 Minimum age for employment in specified occupations outside of school hours for limited periods of time each day and each week.

16 BASIC MINIMUM AGE FOR EMPLOYMENT. At 16 years of age, youth may be employed for unlimited hours in any occupation other than one declared to be hazardous by the SOL

Oh and btw, Chik FilA is just as "crappy" (by which I take it you mean Service Industry?) as MacDonalds.

Nowhere. You're being too picky and unrealistic. Back in my day I cut 5 lawns each weekend with rusty old scissors my dad loaned to me with 50% interest.
No where hires until you are 16
