I have a job crafting Pizzas, salads and all things noodly.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

I put my feet into my comfortable shoes and... Walk. Perfect solution for the problem I was having with feet that smell BAD because of sweat caused by socks

I installed Photoshop on my sisters friends computer. Wasn't gonna ask for money, but she gave me $20 for it.

 

This is more likely the situation one would find. I fixed a few problems with my friends mom's computer once and she gave my $50 even though I didn't ask for anything and told her it wasn't necessary. Often, neighbors and people you know will just want to be kind to young folks.

 

I earned 5USD (converted) for cleaning up and optimizing a neighbor's notebook... Can't charge too high since it'll scare off the customers...

 

I usually don't ask for anything at all, but as EarthboundHero noted, people will usually try to pay you something.

 

Edit: I'm also not doing repair work for money these days as I haven't needed a source of spending money for several years, but I still help people from time to time just because.
