I once took a prison job as a guard/correctional officer when I needed money. Getting in was easy and the experience made me grow as a person, but because they let anybody in, you’ll have to prepare yourself mentally to work with the occasional asshole(s) with just the worst outlook on humanity and incarcerated people’s ability to change.
Is babysitting still a thing? And walking people’s dogs? Perhaps (home) tutoring? Proofreading, although this one might require a degree, not sure. Postal services?

For what little it’s worth, here you can’t have a felony conviction and legally work in corrections (or even as a security guard.)(though a lot of desperate security cos will ignore that until they get shut down for not running/ignoring the background checks.)
