Default Re: SA-friendly jobs

Working remotely as a freelancer is a good way to work without necessarily having to meet people face to face. Seems ideal at first, but the problem is it can actually make social anxiety worse when you do eventually have to go out and meet people.

I worked freelance as an animator for 7 years and found that I became even more of a recluse and my SA was far worse when I did eventually go out. Cabin fever would set in, it really wasn't healthy spending so much time alone.
I guess the trick is to try and find the right balance.

Here is an idea for being self employed with little or no face to face contact.
Printing 3D designs for customers on ebay, gumtree etc. Using a 3D printer .
Downside is initial investment, building up experience, and as Johnny Boy55 said
spending to much time alone.
In business I***8217;m OK one to one face to face as long as I really know what I***8217;m on about.
For me knowledge helps with confidence a lot. Been quiet been busy recently

Talking Re: SA-friendly jobs

I agree with alltimegreat, translating saved my life lol I basically just receive assignments via email, complete it and then return. You get paid quite well and don't necessarily need qualifications (depending on the company); esp if it is your mother tongue. I work for Amytis Translations.com and they're great, very easy to work with and laid back company. Capita. com is the biggest one in the world I think, but they're so hard to get into because they require a million qualifications. I managed to save quite a bit of money this way and paid my way through therapy - that was the goal. If you are working just to be avoidant, that's a very bad idea; it will only make your anxiety worse but if you work, save up and then do something to help yourself, then don't feel bad for having an anti-social job. The way I see it, I am in this job because I would like to have a choice in whether I want to or not want to be social but I am by no means avoiding it. I use my money to do social things. I even signed up to the gym!

I'm happyagain :D

I'm also a translator. Great for SA sufferers but allows you to exercise considerable avoidance, so you don't get any better.

(And in my experience you will need quals - either an MA in Translation Studies or a vocational diploma like the IoL DipTrans. (I have an MA and the IoL DipTrans) - unless you have a lot of experience in a particular industry and can bring that along with your language skills to the table).

I'm a translator, I have 0 qualifications in translating and I have worked for big advertising companies and law firms. right now I am working for legal aid through a translation company that tested my knowledge by giving me work and then having someone else proofread it. They said that, if the proofreader rated me high, then they will send me more work and they did! ...because some people understand that not everyone has 'qualifications' but that they are just as intelligent, if not more, than those who do. People with social anxiety in particular tend to be highly intelligent because they spend so much time alone and all they can really do is learn; I used to spend the majority of my time endlessly reading and researching. Anyway, I don't suffer from social anxiety like I used to because I was able to save up and go to therapy. Once I improved my communication skills, I was confident enough to join group therapy and now, I have the confidence to go to the gym. I used to be so self conscious going to the gym because I did not want people to see me exercise but now, I am in contact with an old school friend and we gym it together. I couldn't leave my house 2 years ago so I have come a long way and that's thanks to people who are not so rigid when hiring workers. Amytis are an excellent and professional company, they just know that you cannot judge a fish by trying to make it climb a tree. For anyone that is interested, the company that I work for is Amytistranslations.com - they have over 200 translators, some like me who are tested in fair and helpful ways and others with 'qualifications'.

You do have to tell them that you would like to be tested through proofreading though...

Well, I'm just going on what my experience has been. There is a lot of snobbery in the translation industry, as I discovered when I worked in-house. And virtually all agencies I've worked for have asked for either quals, or industry experience, or both.

I just do CashCrate from home, my husband is the big earner with a real job, I'm the lazy bum.

It's just surveys, giving your opinions on TV adverts and new foods, stuff like that, but it works, it's not a scam. It's not just an American thing, they send monthly cheques everywhere in the world. They pay with a cheque through the post at first then you have the option to put your earnings in your PayPal.

I make about 300/400 a month, which I spend on very important things like lipstick and Starbucks.

I drive a truck now, i was an office cleaner working unsociable hours before that. I had keys for the businesses I cleaned so didn't really see anyone.
I have more contact with the driving but it's fairly fleeting unless I feel unusually sociable! I'm given a job sheet and a truck for the day/week - usually getting loaded by digger and transporting it to tip on another site, back and forth, just me n the radio living the dream ! It's about 3k to get both licences but with 12 hour days you can make it back quickly. Scooter delivery also looks sa friendly, especially for deliveroo as you're fairly independent working from your phone.

seen a couple of good SA jobs which are Replenishment Operative at Waitrose, but is typically night work. And Parcel Sorter- just work on your own and sort Parcels. Drawback is very loud music played.

Some gardening can be quite good. I mean sometimes it really isn't but often you can do work for holiday cottages, estate agents and stuff. Gardens where people are out are my favs.

Default Re: SA-friendly jobs

I work in Data Entry for a big publishing company. I specifically choose jobs where I don't have to deal with people on the phone so this is ideal. Its through an agency and initially they wanted someone for 2 -8 weeks but I've been here now over 2.5 years. This is my longest temp job, would be nice if it could become permanent. My boss works from home 2 days a week now and shes mostly in meetings so don't see her that much, not that she's a terrible boss or anything but sometimes she can get a bit stressed!

Up til January of this year I also had a weekend job as a cleaner in Youth Hostel which meant cleaning rooms. Mainly dorms. It stressed me out a lot because I just wanted to get it over with and leave. I got annoyed when guest were still in bed especially as they had to leave, when my co workers were bloody slow so I'd end up having to help them sometimes, my boss would sometimes have a word with me over me missing things, like not cleaning things properly. Even though shes some petite Romanian Girl she had a very loud voice, almost like she was shouting. I know it must have been hard for her but I was still annoyed and it would put me in a low mood for the rest of the day.

I've had much worse jobs and I have learnt to stick to something I'm happy as opposed to going for something that pays more with more stress. I've had horrible bosses, worked with horrible people and just not fitted in certain places, especially Warehouse and industrial environments where people are more vulgar, less educated and mostly talk about football which I hate! I've had loud mouthed bosses or people make comments about my quietness and made issues over it. It was so annoying like one time when I worked in the evening for a Parcel company in Data Entry and this girl remarked "oh so you do talk then" because I maybe I answered a question or spoke, can't remember.

The thing is you will encounter people who are friendly and sympathetic and know how to behave around you. Other people are just plain ignorant and don;t fully understand Social Anxiety or Shyness. They just label you weird or quiet or rude as if being able to socialise is normal and easy but we all know that its not.

So I've learnt to be very careful what jobs I choose. I'm lucky enough that I established a good reputation with an Employment Agency who knew the kind of work I liked doing and my exact specifications i.e no telephone work and no customer service.

I've had some really nice jobs, like 6 months of filing in a room with another girl who I got on with really well and plus we had a radio. The rest of the office was open plan. But as soon as she left I was asked to take on different work and work with a team of people. It wasn't so bad but I loved that tranquility of being in that room.

But even a simple job can bring problems like when I worked for this company for a couple of months. One day I couldn't log into my computer because my Login had expired. I was too afraid to tell anyone. My boss at the time was in meetings I think. I managed to go virtually through the whole day almost not being found out until this woman in my team asked me if I had received her email and I had to say I didn't as my computer wasn't working. My boss seemed a little angry at me telling me I had wasted a whole day. I felt like crying. But I didn't want anyone to see me crying so I mustered up all the energy I had and pretended everything was fine, said goodbye making them think I was coming in the next day as usual but didn't. I emailed my consultant at the agency telling her I wasn't the right person for the job but she never got the email and I had a voice message on my phone from another person from the agency. So I merely sent her an email explaining that I wasn't right for the job. So now I don't think I can ever work for them again.

This has happened a few times with other employment agencies either because something like this happened or they had me using the phone when I explicitiy told them I didn't feel confident on the phone. I had to email agencies to make excuses. Thankgod we live in the internet age otherwise I don;t know how I would have handled it. Maybe write a letter and post it through the door lol!

I did once try doing Market research over the phone and could barely get through the day. Twice I tried this with 2 different agencies. The first Agency were really understanding and nice about it but the other wasn't so much. The woman on the phone said "that was only 3 hours, not what I call giving it a go" but for me that was absolute torture. The problem with some Employment agencies is that the more jobs they can fill, the more money they make so they might be a little economical with the truth. If you say you don't like using the phone they might say "oh theres only about 1% phone work involved" But you might end up answering the phone for most of the day! Thats why you really have to be specific about what you want in a job.

Yes, it is very difficult. I work as part of 3 teams, large organisation in a busy building setting. I work remotely which gives me the flexibility to work from home or other community settings and only need to show up for meetings etc. I feel self-conscious that I am never around and others start acting differently around you. This makes me more reluctant to attempt to fight my SA and go into the office to work. My colleagues are always going out to socialise, they do many things together and I feel so excluded from it all, which makes me feel lonelier. That phrase comes to mine..."Damned if I do, damned if I don't"

Default Re: SA-friendly jobs

I worked in a small, cheque encashment office doing data processing years ago. there was only either 2 or 3 of us but I still felt awkward communicating with them. I would also serve people at the counter. As it was on a 121 basis and specific, I was able to overcome my SA. I have good people skills, as long as it is on a 121 basis. I have worked in the caring field for many years. Residential work can be OK as you may be supporting 2 or 3 clients living independently. cook meal, help to bathe and put them to bed then do a sleep in. There is only one member of staff on at any one time. Residents require very little attention. Also I worked as a manager for a day center, I had my own office and was left alone most of the times to get on with my work, which was great. Staff would come and see me and as it was on a 121 basis, this suited me. The downside was having to attend lots of meetings, do presentations for guests. My anxiety would overwhelm me. Currently, I am working as a community volunteer coordinator. I work remotely which means I can work from anywhere including from home. I do have to attend meetings and training with others but my manager is very flexible knowing I have SA, she is supportive if I am having a bad day and do not attend. I mostly meet clients and volunteers on a 121 basis which is ideal for me. I still have lots of human contact but on a 121 basis the majority of the time and for no more that 1.5 hours at a time doing supervisions or assessments. Again, the downsides are I have to facilitate training, attend group training and meetings. I also have to do information sessions to groups of people. This is a challenge but is good for my development and stops me from Avoiding anxiety provoking experiences. I am always looking for that perfect job I can do at home. Where I only need to communicate via phone or email and only meet people on a 121 basis but at the same time, know that it will not be good for my SA as I already feel very isolated and lonely.

Wow that sounds like heaven! lol I've had a few jobs like that or I worked solely with one person. Right now I work in a massive open plan office. Been here over 3 years. It grew into a team where I had some camaraderie with my co workers who were also temps like me. My boss I rarely see now as she is either working from home or in meetings a lot. A few months ago she hired an assistant internally and I basically only ever say 2 words to him and her which is "good morning (no tell a lie, I say "see you tomorrow" lol)

I remember a few years ago I had a nice job sorting out files for this company. I love routine jobs where I don't have to think much and me and it was just me and this girl in a room all to ourselves for a few months. Unfortunately she left for another job and I was left alone but it wasn't so bad. Even though it has been nice to work on my own I have started to yearn for human contact! When I was there my boss who was really nice thought I should be brought out to work with the rest of the people but I was happy where I was! Its so peaceful working like that and being left to your own devices.

Right now my team is the smallest and there are teams of about 10-15 people and they all seem to talk to each other a lot! It seems almost impossible to talk to anyone unless I go into the kitchen but even then people are in groups talking, already having that rapport! This is the only thing I hate about this company, because there are 900 people on this one site alone, you'll never learn everybody's name!

I have achieved a lot over the years! I can ask for directions, use public transport, eat out and go out to bars and pubs on my own, even go chat to women I'm interested in but its tricky in certain situations. Ofcourse this company does have social acitivities like art, language, tai chi, yoga and Pilates as well as sports.

That's really nice you have a boss who is so understanding! I think most of my bosses either thought I was just very quiet or stuck up for not talking much! I had a phone conference the other day and really didn't like it but its not as bad I guess as using the phone to talk to customers and members of the public as I would hate that! It was basically some training I had to do for a new task at work!

Its took years for my SA to find me the right job but I believe its won.

I work in the furthest corner of my house, working for myself having developed a web business that needs zero customer face to face, only short frequent phone conversations but mostly data processing day in, day out.

its got me and I feel it rubbing its hands with delight!

Default Re: SA-friendly jobs

Anyone got other suggestions? I used to use cleaning as a fall back, but my physical health ain't quite what it used to be and I've had to accept it's not a realistic option for me anymore. I went back to the charity I used to work for, and just a few weeks in, I'm a total wreck. It looks like the compassion died in that place when the former colleague I came back to replace passed away. That lady was a legend and she took me on because she recognised that I am good with people when I couldn't see it. The people who seem to be running the place just now are the complete opposite, and I feel there is a total lack of understanding towards my issues and clients' issues. I am being compared with the other adviser and being told it's not fair that I am doing fewer face to face appointments with people than she does. I really try to match up to the proficient adult worker model, but I have always been slower than everyone else at everything even since school. I don't understand why really, other than it's because I have constant performance anxiety and keep making mistakes and having to correct them. The harder I try to meet expectations, the worse my anxiety gets, and I always end up being consumed night and day by the anxiety. I am a serial job leaver and the older I get and the more it happens, the harder it is to explain my CV.

There are quite a few public sector jobs, usually civil service, NHS or local authority, which can often be very process-based, some of them with minimal need to contact members of the public, or with a very formulaic and process-bound or scripted method of doing it - and also limited demands for fake socialising in the workplace. I'm working public sector and find it a lot less pressure than my previous jobs.

The pay in these kind of jobs isn't great, but they usually ask for minimal school leaver qualifications, have a reasonable pension scheme, and the public sector generally tries to set a good example as a good employer (ie employee rights are upheld better than they are in the private sector, in my opinion).

I work as a postman. Apart from the 2 hours sorting in the morning, where I can basically hide in my work, the rest of it is 4-5 hours out posting mostly on your own apart from a van share to different parts of the area. It's the easiest job Ive had in terms of me having to be stuck with the same people 8 hours a day.

some jobs there's youtube vids about.

Been watching driving instructor vids, it is much harder than you'd think to train someone up.
Going to watch teaching assistant vids.

I work as a transcriptionist for the NHS. I'm pretty happy at the moment as I work in the office two days a week and work at home three days a week with plenty of overtime. The only downside is staff shortage.

^ It's great to see that you're happy, I seem to remember you posting about being unhappy in some of your previous jobs, did your current job role involve much training.

At least that's one good thing that's helped since the pandemic, for someone with social anxiety is it's more acceptable to work from home and dealing with going to the office once, or twice a week must be much easier to handle.

I do worry about how I would cope if I needed to seek alternative employment that involved seeing people every day, as if I didn't have a job I couldn't pay for my mortgage and would probably have see if my parents fancied a lodger.

Thanks Newbs. It's made such a big difference working at home three days a week as my anxiety levels have decreased. On the two days a week I'm in work I'm not always at my desk and have to liaise with some members of about other tasks. I'm feeling much more confident and my communication skills and building good relationships with staff have blossomed over time.

What kind of work do you do newbs16?

^ Is that a serious comment?

I'd kill to work in a place where my anxieties are manageable. I've long given up the 'fight' against anxiety, have accepted 'it is what it is' and just really want to get on with things.

Anxiety gets better with gradual exposures anyway, so that what once was slightly difficult becomes easier in time and then you may be ready to move on to more challenging things or stick at it - whatever.
