As for the recommendations by some to try construction, it's probably not a great idea. From what I have seen, new construction is bad right now. There are contractors all over that are going under. My job is secure for the most part because at the level our clients are at, this economy problem doesn't stop them from buying something they want for the most part.
Pretty much all customer service jobs are gonna be rough right now, but I would suggest finding a restaurant to work at if you can deal with people. I was a server for like 4 years, and I made decent money and had a flexible schedule. Also a perk to that kind of job is meeting new people all the time, whether it be friends or girls.
Oh yea, something else. Post up an ad on craigslist for odd jobs. List anything you can or are willing to do. I did that a while back when I was dead broke, and i actually got a lot of responses from people needing stuff done. I actually ended up getting like 5 jobs from this one contractor who payed me 17/hour to help install shopping cart security systems. just watch out for weirdos, seriously. Craigslist is tweaker city, and I imagine there are probably some weird sexual predators on there also.
