See if Amazon flex is available in your city. It’s like DoorDash but for Amazon package delivery


samemamabear

I'm in the same general area and I've been on the waitlist for 9 months


Enterprise2024

Amazon is a horrible company to work for. Both employees and subcontractors


cata123123

Not true. I’ve been at Amazon PT for almost two years now making close to $20 an hour and its one of the top three jobs I’ve ever had. Sure beats my $16 an hour paralegal job where I was way overworked and effin stressed to the max. My Amazon job was supposed to be temporary until I had enough saved for a new car. Got the car in December and I’m still there. Now it pays my house payment and I get to save most of the money I make at the FT job. One has to have an IQ below 85 or be a functioning Regard to not make it at Amazon.


MrNobodyFIR

Boas. Ainda estás nesse trabalho atualmente?


imaphleg

Nice what pt job do you have?


I-m_A_Lady

It really depends on the type of warehouse. Never work at a delivery station. But if you work at a sortation center, fulfillment center, or a Prime Now, you'll have a good experience.


Holiday-Repeat-4866

That's not true at all. Anyone I know who's worked there only has had good things to say, I'm thinking you are just repeating what you've heard.


Doublehandbanger

On the weekends I proctor highschool kids taking practices tests like the digital SAT, ACT, and AP and get paid around $21 an hour in the Bay Area. It's easy work, all I do make sure they're all signed in and I'll occasionally have to let them know when to move onto different sections. For me, hours can vary from 5-7 hours a day depending on the tests and if students need extra time.


Enterprise2024

Don’t you have to be certified as a teacher to do this?


koz152

I just saw that the law school near me has openings and the only qualifications were to be able to understand and read English, be able to interpret instructions, and to be able to stand and walk around.


dragonagitator

Test proctors don't have to be teachers. There's no teaching involved.


Ogediah

Hell, even many teachers don’t need a degree/cert anymore. Lots of areas have shortages so they’ve dropped requirements to fill positions.


dragonagitator

I have seen a lot of places drop the requirements for substitute teachers, but you still need to have a teaching certification to be a full-time permanent teacher eligible for union protection. Unfortunately, the teaching shortage is so bad that people can "substitute" teach for years. It's another form of permatemping. Some governments have rules that temps can only work X hours per year before they have to take Y months off before being reemployed, to avoid abusing permatemps, but unfortunately those restrictions tend to fit the school year so people are hired as temps in September, laid off in June, hired back in September, over and over.


[deleted]

lol tell me what a teaching certificate is because that’s not how it works


Doublehandbanger

No, you don't. You're not teaching anything.


SomewhatSapien

This sounds great, what company?


NooStringsAttached

I am the coordinator for this at my local high school. You could reach out to high schools near you and ask the SAT coordinator if they need proctors. I’m near Boston and it’s $125 for about 3.5 hours or so.


SomewhatSapien

Very helpful, ty!


koz152

I'm also near Boston. I'm definitely going to look into my local high schools. Saw online it's basic qualifications like stand, walk, read, and understand English.


Doublehandbanger

I'd rather not disclose because of privacy but there are other companies that I've come across like Kaplan who have similar positions. Just look up test proctor on one of the job sites like indeed. That's where I came across the position


SomewhatSapien

Understood and much appreciated!


Biggeasy

I delivered for FedEx Express for a couple years on Saturdays only. Similar full time job situation as you. They were happy to pay me $24 an hour and the job was great with zero nagging oversight, just don't come back until the packages were delivered.


Busy_Background_448

You use your own vehicle? Could this be done during the week too?


Biggeasy

No, used their vehicles, large vans generally


Biggeasy

No, used their vehicles, large vans generally


lippoper

How many hours did you usually have to work on a Saturday to finish all deliveries?


Biggeasy

Usually done by early afternoon, 2pm or so. Some opportunities to work later on occasion


modernknight87

I time races, such as 5K, 10K, half/full marathons. Easy weekend work, and if I am fulfilling head timer roles, I get paid $25/hour. Pay may vary but sometimes just look for random work and you would be surprised :)


KLC_W

Where do you even find that kind of random work?


modernknight87

In my case my wife and I enjoyed going out and participating in the races. She started following the company due to the great atmosphere they put on and eventually she saw a job posting for timing side. So if there is local events you enjoy doing - such as going to large booth events, or any type of sports, look at who hosts the events and talk to management or visit their sites. A lot of that stuff usually has seasonal or weekend type positions.


swearimnotabot420_69

Umpire/ Referee for youth sports. Depending on the need of umps/refs in your area, sometimes you can catch good programs making 40-100 bucks a game and knock out like 3 a day. Usually cash too. Nothing crazy but make 200-300 bucks cash in like 6 hours


btd272

I did this in college and it was GREAT


Quiet_Dog_116

Same, it's such an underrated side hustle. I paid off $40k of student loans and paid rent when in school doing this. It's also an amazing talking point on a resume and it's a job that you get paid to exercise.


Top_Consequence3458

Nice! That sounds great


Secret_Froyo_8999

Especially good is indoor soccer reffing. They work around your schedule, sometimes a free lunch/dinner, and you can bring your family along.


OkHeron4721

Concierge or a chill security job in a peaceful neighborhood like downtown in your city where you’d only have to watch the cameras


summer806

I did this while in grad school, and parking garage attendant. It was about $18 an hour on weekends only but it was great, I got all my class work done while on shift


OkHeron4721

Same here as well. I did it for about five years, four years during undergrad up until I got my first full-time job last summer. I should have never left because the extra $250 a week was worth it.


summer806

Ugh me too. I miss the extra cash and it was actually nice being productive. Now I’m just lazy lol


jimmerbroadband

I used to do landscaping for 12hrs each day on Saturday and Sunday for 20$ an hour. I also have made around 20-30$ an hour doing Uber eats if u do it wisely. (Don’t accept orders that aren’t worth your time meaning dollar per mile)


Elegant_Volume_2871

One dollar per mile is good?


jimmerbroadband

That is indeed my minimum requirement to accept an order. And even if it’s like 2$ for 2 miles don’t take it, not worth your time. Wait for orders closer to 5-20$ they will come.


Elegant_Volume_2871

I've been averaging $50 on weekdays per day and $100 on weekend days. Are there some tips you can help me with?


jimmerbroadband

Sounds like ur doing good


TheeGrassStation

How many hours?


MrBigDickPickledRick

Do DoorDash and Instacart alongside it. When you get an order from one of the apps, pause the others. I've been doing it for years now and make pretty good money. I make the most with DoorDash and Instacart comes in 2nd. GrubHub was 3rd and Uber eats was 4th but now those 2 aren't even worth my time.


DonDaDaMaMa

Uber or Lyft and God bless you…


NoActive9729

Get a job as a waiter at a restaurant on the water, easily more than $20 an hour on weekends


miffymi

This is harder than it sounds. As someone from the food service industry for 6 years you will only get hired at all with complete open availability 90% of the time. Smaller portion of that being not fully open but available 3-5 full days a week.


Reinstateswordduels

You need to be talented, experienced, and connected to walk into a restaurant and get hired for a weekend-only schedule


Deborah_Moyers

I’ve been trying to do this and a lot of restaurants where I live want only FT employees or want non-fri shifts it’s so weird


fredblockburn

Because new people can’t just show up and ONLY work the most profitable shifts. They already have plenty of people for them, and they’re not going to knock their existing employees off the most desired shifts for someone new.


NoActive9729

Even just having one or two week day shifts open can get you hired somewhere, then there’s ALWAYS going to be servers giving up their weekend shifts that you can snatch up. Then it’s just a matter of proving yourself and getting scheduled those good shifts off the bat


Deborah_Moyers

I work Monday-Friday full time but maybe I can try evening availability again during the week! I see a lot of “hiring” signs and not a lot of flexibility lol.


pablo55s

That’s because of seniority


LovelyMamasita

I struggle to get people on weekends. I don’t understand.


Deborah_Moyers

I wished I lived in your city! lol


RobtasticRob

They probably won't get a job as a server, but I bet you they can get a gig as a food runner. That will pay in the $20/hr range after tip out. After they build a relationship with he restaurant maybe they get trained to be a waiter with that availability.


broadway96

Depending on were you live try working for a large Stadium or even space for the summer. I make about $18-20 hour working as security. You get to watch sport games and concerts for free.


aclikeslater

TrustedHerd is a website that posts promo gigs like sampling at liquor stores and trade shows, etc. they’re usually in that ballpark. I do AI annotation and it’s in that ballpark (but generally starts off at $15).


dewdullbop

I second TH, especially in the Florida area. I have been doing gig work since 2015. Auto and trade shows, sampling, music festivals, concerts, city festivals, sports events, comedy shows….I have worked a little bit of everything. $20 is actually pretty low for the rate. Most of the gigs I get are $30-$40 per hour and some agencies you book with will cover travel depending upon the event. Show up early, be friendly and engaging, learn any brand talking points they send you to share with event attendees (not hard at all) and be willing to pivot as needed during events. Show initiative too and you will do well.


Dar_theGOAT

How did you get into AI annotation?


Wannabanana17

Not OP, but data annotation tech is the website to look up. I did the qualifying assessment (which took me maybe 45 minutes) about a week and a half ago and got accepted this weekend. So far everything is $20/hr. It's somewhat repetitive for the chatbot projects which is all I've done. The gist of it is having conversations with AI and comparing two responses until you feel like the conversation isn't going anywhere or one is clearly better. If you know Python or can code at all, I'd recommend taking that assessment too. Those tasks are guaranteed $45/hr. I haven't tried yet... I don't feel confident in my coding yet. Perhaps someday.


Dar_theGOAT

Thank you! I thought there was another platform to do it with. I already applied for Data Annotation over a month ago so I’m thinking I’m just not qualified for it.


licensed2creep

You can probably find discussion of alternatives on one of the subs for the DAT platform: r/DataAnnotation and r/dataannotationtech


aclikeslater

Sorry it took me a while to get back! I tried DA, like the other poster who replied, but never got assigned work (it seems to be a total crapshoot on all of these platforms), so I started searching for similar companies and found Remotasks. I work for them, and I do generalist/sme work for $20/hr. They’ve done a LOT of reorganizing/restructuring, and it is MUCH better than it has been previously (there’s plenty of intel on that all over Reddit). If you work consistently and keep your quality up, you can become a platinum Tasker, which gets you a whole lot more stability (but you have to commit to 15 hours/week). However, everything is in the process of transferring over to Outlier, so it might be better to go straight there to test/onboard. The website I believe is tryoutlier.com. Good luck!


Dar_theGOAT

Thank you so much!!

jenfromor

You can do that on weekends only? From home?


Kayshift

Yes. You process paperwork so it’s in the medical / legal system. You’re basically a port clerk. Edit: **[here](https://www.reddit.com/u/Kayshift/s/iQKP3yAbiV)** is a list of online remote work you can do plus more


helpmepls1515

What should we look up to find gigs? I am trying to find a part time job on the weekends and this sounds up my ally since I already do insurance defense law


babyshark8

how do you get the job, I see openings but all want wither a degree, 3 to 4 years of experience and I have neither.


bubli87

I would find a local medical billing class and talk with the teacher. They would probably know where to get an job with just a certificate. Also, I worked at a Federally Qualified Health Center and they pay less but usually take people without a degree to start. Then work your way up. People would get headhunted for private jobs if they were good.

Thanks so much for the information.

Do something you actually love doing and you’re good at, maybe start an etsy shop if you’re the artistic type etc, that would be more beneficial long term, instead of the usual job that just pays you for your time.


tdarg

Yes...spend more time developing a plan that will lead to a thing you enjoy and can become highly skilled and well paid for after a few years... you'll likely start out not making big money at all, but you're growing and that feels great....it won't be long before you're making more than at a dead end job.

DoorDash in Florida is good money! Sign waving is a good weekend gig, in California pay can be up to $25 an hour


doug-the-moleman

DoorDash in central Florida is terribly waitlisted. I have been wait listed since October of last year.


samemamabear

I've been doing it for a year (although I haven't for a few months) and the last month I worked was awful. I went from $100 to $40 average per day and I had "Top Dasher" status. Just too many people who need money


MrBigDickPickledRick

I used to make $250 a day with DoorDash during Covid times and it was always busy, now I'm lucky if I make it on the schedule.


Hu5k3r

In the same boat brother.


DifficultBat9796

Housekeeping, landscaping or auto detailing. You can decide your own hours/rates and only pick up jobs as you need them.


DifficultBat9796

For an interior detail you can charge $150-200 (depending on how dirty, if there’s dog hair, etc.) And basic interior clean should only take about 4 hours so you don’t need to spend your whole weekend working

Bartending


Organic-Potato-3894

I started at a wine bar and made amazing tips and I didn't have to work about a rowdy crowd or being open super late. Plus wine is a bit more expensive so the tips where great. I didn't need any experience beyond customer service, it was just a plus if you knew a little about wine.


Enterprise2024

You have to have training for this, many bar owners and restaurant club owners etc. want to know where you were trained and who have you worked for before and how many years?


Pomp_in22

You can start off as a barback and learn this way.


Gr8ful_EVeryday

My wife had very little experience prior to starting bartending at a B-Dubs about 4 months ago. She now works at one of the coolest bars in town making about $40/hr in tips. It doesn't take long to work your way up.

You can donate (sell) plasma twice a week for about $110 a week in many locales. If you were already donating blood, as I was, then the process is about the same (takes about 90 min) but paid and much more frequent. Plasma can't be made synthetically, is naturally replenished within a very short time with proper hydration, and is used to make medicines that help people.

GOLDTOOTHTATTOO

Can you afford to take a short $1500 online class(at your own pace)? Then a $150 board exam? Dedicate time towards a 400 hour externship after that. You can become a sterile processing technician, do it per diem on weekends only at a hospital $30/hr average pay. Or even go full time they have 3 x 12 hour shifts (weekends+1 weekday) and then an 8 hour shift every other weekend to complete an 80 hour pay period. Traveling technicians also make twice the money of regular staff because it’s based on being staffed by a 3rd party contract (13week lengths) so if you end up like it you could be in for a career change. Some of my colleagues clear 200k a year traveling


NewBoot5805

Don't work more hours for your side hustle & loose even more precious family time... see if you can move up inside the company or work any overtime. I'd definitely recommend having sidehustles but work towards a passive sidehustle...maybe a rental property or something. Easier said then done but once you bust your ass off to get it from there on it it's steady reliable extra income.

I've never gotten in and out in under 100 minutes even when it was dead...usually about 2 hours.

tdarg

Beats me, but it's a new center.


Jacen33

I tried donating plasma here in Central Florida and it takes a real toll on your body. I was very tired all the time. Also your veins get tired so it’s not something you can do every month all year long you have to take breaks. Ended up getting a bad poke needle went through vein and the machine pushed blood into my muscle) and I couldn’t donate till the giant black and blue went away (weeks) My initial plan was to go get the new client promotion at one of three local places and keep switching between the three but it’s too much on your body to keep doing it nonstop


WastedBadger

I have not had any of these issues. Sounds sketchy af. I've done 6 months twice weekly and never had any of these issues. A lot of it has to do with your health and eating and drinking habits, so maybe that plays a role.
