What should I do for a living?

[Anonymous]

Things I want:

Talk to people
Not confined in a desk
Low stress
Fixed schedule - no flexibility to arrive early or stay late


Things I don't want

Pressure
Annoying boss micromanaging me
Constant email checking/responding


Money is not an issue. I need a break and adult interaction. Kids are going to school and I don't want to be home alone.

I'm a teacher but no patience to deal with helicopter parents and disrespectful children anymore.

Thanks for your suggestions.

People are so rude. I'd say retail somewhere with low sales pressure. Like the front person at an interior design or floral shop, where the designers do the big sales but you greet and chat with walk ins or people waiting for an appointment.

If money isn't an issue, then volunteer somewhere.

I get a little irritated with SAHM who suddenly are interested in finding work as a means of entertainment, especially when they have strong demands (no pressure, no late hours, no email checking, no supervision).

For crying out loud, there are very few jobs that meet all of the demands you're listing. And for each one of them, there are tons of applicants who actually need a job b/c they need the money.

It's fine to want to work and find a job, even if you don't need the money, but it's not okay to do so with that attitude (the attitude that the job is there to entertain you and should not in any way inconvenience you).

Good luck interviewing!
