Australian welcome to the board. I would say they probably are doing a lot of watch and learn stuff with the more seasoned guys, ride alongs until they learn the trade, maybe intimidation, collecting when instructed to do so. They probably got noticed for some skill by a made guy,and would be used in that manner initially. Good question!

Hang-arounds, wannabees, "associates" - they earn shit until they make their bones by doing something heavy to prove their worth.
Check out what Eddie Nash (the Wonderland Murders, John Holmes, Johnny Wadd, the porno industry) did in Hollywood. Female hang-arounds had to perform oral sex on him. He knew undercover females wouldn't do it, so he could expose them. Same thing happens to guys - until you prove yourself, I doubt you'll be making much. The apprenticeship can be long.
"It was all crap, right up to the moment he died" - an investigator's opinion - and epitaph - of John Holmes (Johnny Wadd)

He was pretty fucked up, john holmes estranged wife said "He [Eddie Nash] was an awful man... John told me he used to leave the bathrooms without toilet paper, then offer the young women cocaine if they'd lick his ass clean." If you look at recent mob cases, low level guys such as associates, soldiers engage in a wide variety of street crimes, home invasions, armed robberies, drug dealings,assaults, or organising one or more of those activities. I don't think getting made automatically makes a guy some sort of high roller.
