Temping in office work - you can also do night work here, especially if you are in the presentations department of a large firm doing power point presentations. Pays well and if you work hard when you are there it pays off. Gym instructor. Waitressing. Ushering/box office at theatres. Granted the last two don’t really pay enough usually. Hair dresser/beauty therapist that has their own business visiting people and/or employed somewhere that allows you flexible hours. Self employed accountant. Teaching tends to be the most popular option, as it’s pretty flexible and still creative. But it can be unreliable. Working as a sales asssistant in a shop like a book store etc but rarely pays enough really. Modelling work - if you can get it. Voiceover work - if you can get into that competitive market. Tour guide if living in a big city. Corporate acting/role play is another popular choice. Working as a nanny (I know a few actors who do this). Dresser - very popular option in London, dressing actors in West End shows, pays about £10 an hour. There are loads more jobs that actors do like dog walking, house sitting etc, I have heard pretty much everything really!
