golf course. maintenance staff usually works early (first light till about 11-12) to get shit done before the golfers come. Not the best work, but lots of time out by yourself and you can run a side business selling used golfballs you find.

LiFeguarding is the best. i get paid 10 bucks an hour on weekdays and 15 on weekends. Its also super easy most of the time. if you have the money to drop on the training you should definately do that

Just applied for a job at McDonalds... fuck yeah. 9.50 an hour isn't too shabby. I was pissed though, one time I was at this really fancy french restaurant where my mom is friends with the owner, and I went there and talked to him all night, and at the end he said he would be happy to hook me up with a summer job as like an assistant cook, and to come back and apply in April. I called him up last week and he didn't remember me but told me to come in and apply. I did, he still didn't remember me, and he never even called me back for an interview or anything. It would've been such a sweet job :(

If you live near an airport that has a drop zone or just a drop zone for sky diving look into packing parachutes for sky divers. super good money and most likely wont be hourly ($ per pack job) so you can make as much as you allow yourself to make.
