I work at a place that sells recreational vehicles updating their website and I built their network and all that nerdy ****. On the side, I install car stereos in 18 wheeler rigs for my friend's father's trucking company, Bear Trucking. The stereo job yields about 400 a month, no tax. Oh yeah, I also fix personal computers and some for small companies.

Get a gig working at a popular nightclub where all the ladies go to hang out. Try bartending or barbacking, waiting tables; money should be very good and the view should be awesome. Personally, I would avoid the gay bars.

Check the laws regarding age and selling/serving booze to see if there are any issues for you to work there.

Police Disatcher and 911 emergency call taker. $10 an hour, and it is never, ever the same job. Sadly, no nice looking co-workers to bang . Then again I can do plenty of this with out getting tagged for it
