Best I could do in my hometown was call center for an alarm company. The pay was $12/hour (in 2010), but we were completely disallowed anything on the floor other than 1 (one) pen, 1 (one) blank notebook, and a water bottle. Our computers didn't have internet access, so we got to sit there with our thumbs up our asses until the phone rang.

I lasted about 4 weeks.

I'd have doodled my ass off. Then quit in 2.

I'd write a book or something.

Well I haven't had the benefit of a bunch of worms massaging my synapses, Mr Fry,

Just avoid brain slugs and you should be fine.
