I was a "dead head" for a couple of summers in highschool for Tilden Car Rentals.
My job was to bus or fly to different towns and cities, pick up rental cars that were dropped off as one-way rentals, and then drive them back. Sometimes the road trips would take a couple of days. Not a great way to make a lot of money, but it was fun.
I had a co-op position in university that turned into a contract job after I graduated. I worked at the Agricultural Research Station in Agassiz, BC. We were doing research on greenhouse gas emissions from fertilizer, its effects, and how to reduce it. My job was to set-up and engineer the field experiments and process samples. It wasn't a lot of money, but I loved the job.
