My advice, if you're of reasonably sound body, check and see if your area has temp agencies (sometimes also called staffing agencies). The work can involve anything from manual, menial labor (digging ditches, hauling lumber from A to B on a construction site, assembling furniture for a new store) to service work (I've had waitstaff and retail store assignments) and miscellaneous day jobs (road flagger, cleaning/setup for events, etc).

Pay varies by the assignment and the jobs can last anywhere from a day to several months, but if you get a good reputation at the office you may be selected for more lucrative stuff. Can also let you meet people who know trade skills, improve your own, and make friends who are in a similar work-seeking situation and share leads/advice that may be relevant to the specific area you live. I've also heard of temp workers who make a good impression sometimes being asked on by the paying company full time, but that's much rarer in my experience. It gives you a variety of cool shit you can write on resumes, too- I did everything from cut zip ties for $24/hr to waiting tables ten feet from Chuck Norris (which was a lot cooler of a memory before I started to lean into politics). Some assignments sucked. $8/hr for picking up rocks in Deep South heat gets old fast.

At any rate, it can be a great way to find out what kind of stuff you take to quickly and enjoy, it's what got me enthusiastic about doing construction and led to the slightly more stable situation I currently find myself in.

Best of luck, comrade, and remember you have value as a person that goes above and beyond how you choose to sell your labor or how well you can navigate capitalism. We've got your back :heart-sickle:
