Too many to count it seems. Some may have been forgotten, but-
mowing, trash hauling, metal scrapping, photo printing, photography, motorcycle repair, light auto repair, carpentry, plumbing, art fairs, yard sales, to name some.

A whole bunch but being a gigalo was great, lol (made that up).
Once I was enclosing a porch for a lady and out of the blue she got all dolled up and ask if I would babysit her 4 grandkids til she got back. I put my tools away and had fun with the kids and got paid my regular pay. To this day I still have no idea where she went in a big hurry, maybe she had a gigalo with a no show and jumped on the opening.

My "gigolos for less" business plan didn't go very far either.  I guess the clientele wants their moneysworth.....

 Hats, its just a rack of different hats. 
I only had one extra job really.   Whatever they wanted.
  cellulose of any kind, metal, stone or electricity
We also walk dogs and mop floors.

I once was paid double time to take soap opera notes!!  I was painting her house or something.
But the lady paid me 4 hours wages to come in and watch 2 soap operas of an hour apiece, and take notes.
I took 4 full pages of detailed notes! 
She got back, took an instant glance, says....... " yeah, nothing happened".
But she paid up with a smile anyway.

Plumbing and to some degree electrical are the best.
Nobody really needs landscape work and carpentry is lots of expensive tools being risked. Any second can ruin your entire profit for the job if something goes wrong.  And people hardly ever really need woodwork either, so its harder to make them happy. 

But when they haven't had a bath in 3 days because no hot water or their toilet is busted for a day or two?? 
Nobody argues the price for one second!  Gratitude, you get nothing but gratitude.

Plus you can back your truck over your plumbing tools and probably not hurt too much.
You can go to any swap meet and replace the hand tools for $50 any day. 
Low risk, good pay, job satisfaction.

The only serious downside? The lady of the house hardly ever wants to jump the plumber.
Electrician sure. When you are wearing that hat maybe, but hardly ever the plumber.
Takes a special customer for that. ;^)

Starting way back, haul trash, mow lawns.  Then moved up to occasional projectionist in the local movie theatre.   Electricitians helper, irrigation worker, cut and sold firewood, (people always want it stacked just so on the back patio, about a 175yard walk from the truck. )   Did maintenance at a church I didn't even belong to.   Did telemarketing, when desperate to get ahead of the bills.  Right now, have one job and one job only, plus the honeydo,  yardwork.
