Retail – Jobs in retail are very flexible. You can choose the kinds of hours you would like to work. Choose a place that you already love to shop at!

Teaching Assistant or Tutoring – Put your knowledge to use by helping out students. You can get involved in your local college or local public school system. If you want to work as a tutor, you have the luxury of creating your own hours.
Childcare – As a senior, you may have grandchild that are already grown and are nostalgic for times with little kids. Offer your time to watch children of families you know. This can be very helpful for the parents and is a great way for seniors to make some extra money while having fun.
Entertainment Venue – Places like a movie theater, amusement park, or concert hall are great places to work, especially if this is an area of entertainment you enjoy! Much like working in a retail job, you are able to occupy your time with something you love! Plus, there are often many perks that come with working in entertainment venues such as free tickets.
Animal Shelters – Places such as these are often looking for volunteers. As a non-profit, they are often under-funded and could use the assistance. Seek out a local shelter in your area to help animals in need.
Homeless or Women Shelters – Much like animal shelters, these facilities are under-funded and can use assistance. There are many ways you can help out. Sometimes they need assistance organizing donations such as food, clothing, or supplies. They may need assistance in cooking and serving food. There are lots of ways you can help out.
