If you don't have transportation and public transit is not available... maybe some "call center from home" type work?
Got a job at a the post office and have had to call IT Help and pretty sure that, in every call, I've heard background noises that were house noises.
I personally LOVED receiving pallets of stuff when I worked at a grocery store. Super satisfying to tear down a mountain of boxes and making everything go to their places.
Not sure its a common job, but I stumbled into a "work in a university's archeological collections department taking pictures of random samplings of whatever random things were in boxes held in storage from decades ago". Everybody hated doing the camera work because it was tedious and meticulous but kinda loved it.
Outside of me telling bosses, "if you put the tools in front of me with instructions on what to do with them and some way to talk to you when there's problems I cannot solve on my own, you'll probably never have a problem with me", none of my previous job experiences were applicable and I went in with no special training or certifications relevant to the position.
