I haven't had a job for about 2 years now. This past summer I did some side work for my father slatting 1400 feet of fence at 75 cents per foot. Took me about 3 days to do it by myself at 2pm in the sweltering 100 degree heat here (Florida), but I made a good $300 so I was happy. Also this past week I worked with my brother shoveling mulch into a wheelbarrell and then spreading and raking it onto several playgrounds at a daycare center/preschool. All 8,000 pounds of that (yes, Eight THOUSAND, four zeroes).
So basically I've done some "bitch" work to get myself some extra cash while not having a full time "real" job. Currently I'm working on finishing my associates degree at a community college which is why I am not working.
I do however consider myself a professional poker player, and I've made some good cash in the past 6 months, specifically most recently when I cashed out $300 and bought myself a sweet new 19" LCD monitor (I made another thread about that here as well)
My 2 cents.
