Lets see, the kind you need to leave your house and work 9-5. or if your a kid after school for a few hours a day. Apply for fast food places, you local store, etc.

Getting a job you wont like is like repeatedly sticking your hand in a power socket. Fun for the first few times, but after a week, you really start to hate it. And if you hate your job, you hate your life. | |

Try looking in the local papers and businesses. A job in a supermarket stocking shelves may not sound like fun but it's a relatively easy job that pulls in enough money to make it worth your while.

I actually used to work in a fast food place, and I really enjoyed it. But I have a thing for not standing still, and I managed to get into the busiest McDonalds in all of the U.K (and possibly all of Europe), and being one of the few english speakers, and even fewer 'at-least-slightly-qualified' I can do my job well and efficiently. This means I didn't ever have to stand still, I could skip/take breaks whenever I chose, and I nearly always took in an extra £30-£50 bonus per shift.
Four Sundays a month = £900+ Wasn't bad, until I went to University, decided to do an extra diploma on top of a Masters, AND got a full-time girlfriend =P ~Ease~ | |

Revenant's got it right. If you have any way to, the best way to go is to just go out and get a job that is related to your interests. If you don't have any skills, it's alright to get a job that doesn't neccesarily fit your interests as long as you can survive perpetually. I used to get a lot of jobs where I'd think they'd get better after the first month, but they only got worse and I had to quit since they weren't worth working there over studying.
If you have some technical skills, you can freelance online as long as you know where to look. If you have good creative writing skills, there are a few places online that let you exchange writing for money. Anything that isn't illegal or marketing that says you can earn money from it is either BS or isn't worth the trouble. | |
People just don't hand out money and that is the truth of it. There is money sites online that give you money for like.. doing ads and filling out paper work and stuff. But it takes so long that in the end, you should have just got out and gotten a job.
