Sure you could hack Ares to get their shipping schedule for an upcoming run to snatch a new prototype, or you could use your Trace programs to do http://www.twogag.com/comics/2014-02-07-TGAG_404_Hazard_Pay.jpg and call in a team strike on those annoying telemarketers.
Which would be more satisfying?
With that in mind, what sort of non-traditional uses of your SR skills spring to mind that while not necessarily rake in huge money, still caters to some part of you deep down?

Computer &hacking - make public and secured AR and data in nodes be related to Mylittlepony.
Hacking - hack node for subway/skytrain. Have the brakes apply themselves in time with te beat of a popular song.
Gymnastics + cat fall and wall running adept powers/magic - jump off buildings after making a scene to simple walk away after casually
Jump in - take over roombas around the metroplex and have them move to random bear impossible areas of houses. Different rooms every time. Then get all the roombas in a house to go out into the streets and form a pattern, spinning around and making random sounds at once.
Hacking - make all soykaf dispensers add (insert most horrible flavour in dispenser )flavour to coffee
Computer/hacking - edit error messages to mock user

How about changing a log-in prompt to state there's a PEBKAC error upon boot, and no button for logging in?

*sigh* Beer, NOT Bear..
Though where did you find a mug big enough to stuff that into? 
*note to self: Do NOT order the Draft Bear, it looks mad*
