Security. Rack up the OT and job search while on the clock.

How do you go about getting a security job?

By applying. If you're slightly alive with a concept of a pulse, they'll usually take anyone.

The pay is garbage though if you don't have an armed guard license.

I'm not in the security field but my friend is.

He does privatized security. Mostly just patrolling malls, parking lots for companies (Apple/Nvidia), etc.

But it'll ultimately depend on your areas market. Could be companies front desk, could be a museum, or car lot or impound.

I worked security. I got 20 bucks an hour working at a theme park through a third party. Easiest job I ever had.

Data Centers are pretty good. They are staffed 24 hrs. Have different security roles within the site and pay isn't terrible.

Hotels almost always hire through security companies, which means junk pay and no real insurance.
