What kind of work and side businesses do y'all do?

Not even counting tree work or selling cordwood, used to cut wood at midnight with truck headlights 👍💪
Jobs and work came easy, never had to look for it or advertise. Somebody always wanting something. Especially if you interact with thousands of people. Most of my spinoff work came from my first two listed. I worked for county govt, city govt, wife worked for state govt. Lots of networking.
Anything for a buck
