A key thing I always wrote on a resume is "No upward mobility" whenever I'm asked why I left a job. It sounds good to an interviewers ears and it's just obscure enough that they won't probably won't ask anymore questions.

id have a hard time hiring anyone that listens to shit like shpongle. but to each their own.

maybe pick up a part time night job, skate with your friends all day, work all night.  if you want to travel, just look into seasonal jobs at vacation type places. ski resorts, beach resorts, cruise ships, summer camps. those jobs are easy to get so long as youre okay with them not lasting long.

get a serving job. short hours, alright money for a 24 year old and easy to get shifts covered for trips. only downside is having to deal with poosey people.

Go back to school for something. Go get a course catalog at the closest community college and get enrolled in something you like, or can tolerate. At 24 you gotta chill on skating all day.

Valet, when I did that I made bout $300 a day, all cash tips. Plus if its a fancy enough venue they probably have a good hourly rate too. Way better than serving, customer interaction is literally seconds. Stayed in pretty good shape from jogging to retrieve cars.

I worked like 4 hours a night from around 5-9 usually 10 at the latest. Got discount on food and a shift drink once I didn't have to drive customer cars any longer.

Cons: No benefits, no real back up so I couldn't miss days really,it was just me and another dude, we'd run like 150 cars a night and it was a bitch solo. No upward mobility. Service industry kind of sucks, busy times are Thursday-Sunday (at least at this place) when everyone else is winding down

Sounds like you don't have a degree which is fine but cuts some jobs out of the equation.  One that doesn't require a degree is to work in risk management.  Look for insurance companies, get your CPSI which is a certified playground safety inspector cert. and you could weasel into a really relaxed gig. I did it for a while and I traveled around the state sometimes working as little as 2 hours a day on salary.  I was in new cities skating new parks and staying in hotels 2-3 nights a week and it was really fun.  Gave me tons of opportunity to take photos as well. Not my forever job but it was a blast for a while.

prostitution. Choose your own hours, set your own rates, be your own boss.
