Got a job at a firm that supplied all the needs for science lessons in schools. Including everything you might need for a dissection lesson. At my interview the chap in charge of the stores, took a package from one of the shelves and threw it to me - i caught it. It was a dead rat, preserved in formaldehyde. "Well that's got that over" he said......

Also had paper round - in the 70s when paper rounds were massive! Did it on my bike. Also did casual work in the fields, picking peas and picking strawberries.
As a grown up, became a teacher. Have also taught people to teach and once worked briefly P/T at a university Admissions Office and P/T teaching to pay my way through a Masters programme.
I had to give up teaching to care for my disabled son, so as I was stuck at home with no income anyway, took up writing for magazines. Now am a freelance writer and researcher and will act as an (unpaid) consultant for museums with certain items, as I occasionally get asked to go in and look at summat and say what it is or how it was made.
