Gostei dessa:

McJob is slang for a low-paying, low-prestige job that requires few skills and offers very little chance of intracompany advancement. Such jobs are also known as contingent work. The term McJob comes from the name of the fast-food restaurant McDonald's, but is used to describe any low-status job — regardless of the employer — where little training is required, staff turnover is high, and worker's activities are tightly regulated by managers. Most perceived McJobs are in the service industry, particularly fast food, coffee shops, telemarketing, retail and business-to-business copywriting. Working at a low paying job, especially one at a fast food restaurant, is also referred to as flipping burgers.

My suggestion is "odd job" such as in "He does odd jobs." (Ele faz biscates.)

A "biscateiro" would be an "odd jobber".
