I'm kind of amazed at how badly some people on Reddit read the questions posted

So I'm kind of feeling stuck in my job and am trying to get new career ideas

And the very first thing I listed for things I want in a career is something where I don't have to deal with people that much

And I get suggestions like 'you could work in a pharmacy call center since that's close to what you do!'

Now, I did have on the post a section of things that would be nice but not really necessary have a 'it would be nice to work from home'

but like...the number 1 absolute must have was minimal human interaction

because I find talking to people draining

maybe they think it doesn't count if it's not in person interaction?

I guess

But like...while I prefer talking to people over the phone to in person, and over the computer to either

it's still exhausting and draining talking to people on the phone all day

the job market for people with social anxiety suuuuucks

Exactly

Like at least some of the suggestions that had human interaction didn't have that as the main thing, like one person suggested vet tech, which, yeah, you still have to talk to the owner, but a lot of that job is tending to the animals

and preparing pet meds and such

I think it would be awesome to work at a museum where you get to spend your time taking care of artifacts or transcribing ancient texts or cleaning up old art stuff. I feel like you'd have to be really lucky to get a job like that.

That does sound like a really cool job, though

Maybe I should look into what's required for that

Library work, filing work, etc. are always nice for not having to deal with people. Transcription and museum work definitely requires "a college degree" but not always one in the field.
