What job can I get as a recently graduated math major with a low GPA and an otherwise lackluster resume? Any job at all that would cover the following:

1. People will actually be willing to hire me for it
2. Will pay enough for me to live off of

I've calculated my living expenses, including car payments, tuition payments, food costs, gas, insurance, etc, and even when heavily overestimating how much I would spend on things like food and phone plan, it totals out to just above $1000/mo. Rent on top of that would cost me anywhere between $500/mo and $1000/mo depending on the exact area I live and how shitty of a place I'm willing to live in. So I'm looking at needing to earn between $1500/mo and $2000/mo, or between $18,000/yr and $24,000/yr (after taxes, of course).

Finding a job that pays that low of a salary in and of itself isn't that difficult, but what I've been having trouble with is finding a job that pays that kind of salary that's also not afraid to hire a math major. I'm either totally unqualified for even marginally technical jobs because of my shit GPA and lackluster resume, or I'm overqualified just because of my major. These are not assumptions, as I've been applying to jobs for a little over six months now and these are things that I've been repeatedly and explicitly told by everyone I've applied to. I haven't even been able to get basic office assistant, data entry, bank teller, or call center type jobs because of it.

I know that if I want to eventually get a "real" job in my field, I'll have to beef up my resume and/or go to grad school and get a masters (while actually doing well enough to get a good GPA that time), but I desperately need something for the short term while I'm doing that, ideally a job or a set of jobs with which I can fully support myself in the short term.

Any ideas? Would doing something like being a waiter while also supplementing with as many Uber/Wag type gigs as possible help me at all?
