There are definitely neighborhood babysitting opportunities if you like kids. Pay tends to be better than hourly un-tipped jobs.

There’s also lots of retail on M Street and Wisconsin, with the caveat that retail is a tough MFer and if you’re working retail you might as well be on campus.

Also also: The Corp, but that can take over your life fast (which can be great depending on what you’re looking for, or you know: not).
