Before I had my kids I worked as a housekeeper at a military hospital. It was super easy and absolutely no stress. I worked two hours a day cleaning a clinic after everyone had left for the day. NO interaction with anyone, totally chill. Nothing gross to clean up, just dusting and mopping and cleaning a couple of bathrooms. It was the best job I've ever had. My supervisor was totally laid back too.

This is a job I highly recommend for anyone who needs a low stress/no stress job with little to no human interaction. Where you just come in, do your own thing, and go home.

I hope that helps.

Ooops, I had to edit. The job I have now is the best I've ever had. I work for a petsitting company walking dogs. It's awesome! Unless is rains, then it sucks. Most dogs I walk for 30 minutes, and it's just so quiet and peaceful, and I don't have to interact with anyone either. At the beginning of the week I get a list with the days and dogs I have to walk, and then I make my own schedule and do my own thing. Usually I don't have a set time when I have to be there, I have a very big window and decide for myself when I want to work every day. It's absolutely awesome.

i am a really laid back guy, and oftentimes the managers who interview me for various jobs act so serious and formal, which totally clashes with my personality. it's hard for me to connect to those types of people.

i want a job, at least for a little while, that doesn't require too much responsibility, unpredictability, or social interaction. i can handle a little bit but right now i just need a way to make money that i know i can do everyday with no chance of messing up. i do NOT want to deal with snotty customers telling me how much i suck

i am going through a rough time and i just to some stability and time to think. i like to think while doing chores or exercise, so i want a job that is mostly physical work.

i was thinking something like stocking groceries. i really wish i lived closer to some book or record stores, because i always meet really chill people working those jobs. the natural food store seems to have really nice people working and shopping

what are some easy jobs or industries with a good chance of having chill managers?

Just beyond the door he'll find her
Taking her hand he softly says

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life

Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry
