The easiest job in my opinion is that of a substitute teacher. It is not a minimum wage job and pays about $10 an hour or a little more, but it is not too far away from minimum wage. It is a white collar profession and commands some respect. It is quite flexible and you only work the days you want. You get summers off. For me, it is an excellent post-retirement job. I don't really need the money but I can claim that I am still in the labor force. I consider it more of a hobby than a job.

Not even close imho! I can remember back when we had substitutes and we absolutely walked all over them as kids. In today's day and age I'd rather dig ditches than to be a sub.
I was thinking crossing guard, although if the weather is bad that might make the job intolerable.
I would agree with someone above - security guard.
We have someone here who works for the county and works inside of a little pod on top of a bridge. When a large boat approaches they open the bridge, then close it. So they get to sit on the water all day and open/close a bridge. My dream retirement job!

The easiest job I ever had was dabbing excess liquid off of the Airwick Magic Mushroom air freshners as they came off the production line. That's it. That's what I did for 8 hours, 2nd shift, for about a month. I was a temp.
I didn't mind the job at all, except it was 2nd shift.
I was going through a divorce, and it kept my hands busy, and it kept my brain occupied ENOUGH that I wasn't thinking about the separation, divorce, kids, etc. for a little while.
