My husband talked me out of applying for a retail job. Have you looked into front desk at hotels? Another option is hostess at a restaurant. I have a friend who does that temporarily to earn vacation money. If you know local business people, you might land a job at a chamber of commerce or other local business association. They usually have websites and newsletters that need content. You might also have to cover phones but you rarely deal with the general public. I worked at one a while. I got to help with events, too. It was fun.
