What is an "odd job"?
An odd job is a small, informal task or job that is usually not part of a regular routine. These tasks are often simple, one-time activities, like fixing a leaky faucet or assembling furniture. Odd jobs can vary greatly in nature and may be completed by anyone, often without requiring specialized skills. People sometimes hire others to do odd jobs when they need help with tasks they cannot or prefer not to do themselves.
