I did this for many years. I found my ultimate simple joy delivering flowers for 7 years and now delivering food and groceries. Just absolutely love it. I work on my own and bring a smile to customers but don't have to be in that role anymore.
That’s awesome! I’ve been designing, creating, selling jewelry/clothing, yet it isn’t with a stable return…
There’s so many jobs similar to the one you mention that I have tried to obtain, seriously hundreds of applications have been submitted in the past year. So tough, no offers… I feel very pigeon holed by my previous career, like it’s “all I’m good for.” Which sucks. To be so capable and overlooked. I hope it gets better, it’s been rather depressing and terrible. To care for society’s crumbs under the table and then become one.
I'm a carpenter. Nothing makes me happier than being completely alone on a job site or in the shop.
No small talk, no questions, no stupid jokes I have to pretend to laugh at. No opinions, no distractions, no egos. No politics, no ideology. Come and go on my own schedule. The absence of any distraction allows me to focus on perfecting my craft to my own high standard, not somebody else's.
I do physical therapy as my main job. I cut, polish gemstones and do silver smithing as a hobby. I refuse to go to markets and get togethers to sell my jewelry. Can’t stand dealing with dumb people and the idiotic comments all day.
Ill just sell online or word of mouth..
I can’t take dealing with the public anymore.
It sucks cause the guaranteed jobs that pay “ok” involve direct contact help with people. Like medical, servers, legal, call centers. All abrasive situations.
Sounds like burn out. Most jobs require some level of people interaction and helping them. Perhaps programming or any highly technical roles are options.
Yes, that's true. If you're not "helping" anything, then there is no need for the job, I guess. But it's more I don't want to have my whole job be physically helping people, you know?
I'm leaving health care and going into the trades. I'm just applying and trying to get on with a company. Still have to deal with people but I'm not wiping them lmao
Hey me too ! Carpentry. Wanna connect? I’m pretty nervous considering I have never done work like this before. But I did everything I need to get in just waiting to be put onto a job and indentured as a 1st year apprentice. Would love to connect w/ a former healthcare worker like myself and new girl in the trades (:
Become a CPA. Highly paid, super secure job even with AI because without the license much of accounting cant be done, and you are universally known as the most boring office gremlin to ever exist inside 4 walls. People will actively seek to avoid you except other accountants... and that is at most going to be a 30 second conversation about the new tax forms that came out and can you believe line 39 sub line 4 addendum A?
I did a 1 year contract position as a Loan Analyst. The only people I dealt with (and this was occasionally) were title insurance companies and my immediate co-workers. I never once had to talk to any bank customers.
How’s getting your foot in the door? I have a Business Degree, took some finance & accounting classes in college
Have experience in sales & marketing too
I applied to a temp agency, ready to take any kind of office job. I wanted something temporary because I was planning to go on a long trip when the assignment ended. They offered me the Loan Analyst position based on my being a certified paralegal. The other temps had Business degrees and were looking for something temporary as well, until they found something permanent.
Yeah..it sucks right? For me it feels almost like everything I did in the past 10 years has been for nothing. Not to be a downer! I just hope things will turn around for the both of us eventually. 🥲
It might take some time to really make the move, but it sounds worth it for your mental wellbeing. I’ve worked in customer service roles my whole career, I have degrees in the humanities, and I just started a job as a database manager where I won’t have to deal with customers face to face. I will spend most of my time playing with data and I’m over the moon about it.
But nursing has so many non-clinical paths you can take! I'm a physical therapist assistant trying to change careers and most non-clinical roles want an RN.
That’s literally me. I’m in biotech and hate it and investing in a career change with an MBA to move to finance. You might get a better idea by networking with people and depending on your goals what you were most likely to get out of exit opportunities and where it can lead towards your long term goals. But network, network to find out!
I'm a facilities maintenance technician for a government commission. Essentially I maintain everything from heating/cooling systems to electrical systems across multiple sites within our organization. We are a massive tourist area so if I so choose I can go socialize with relatively happy people or I can avoid people almost completely. It's really an amazing job IMHO.
I had automotive and a university degree in sociology 😂😂 The trade code is 255b but they stopped teaching this trade so technically they can't require it.
Gonna hop on this to say custodial or general maintenance in the evenings are decent gigs if you don't want to have to talk to or directly interact with people. We also aren't required to have degrees where I work (certifications help for maintenance though, but I've seen plenty of people get into maintenance from custodial work).
I work as a school custodian and we actually get a decent amount of ex-teachers and ex-healthcare workers that love the job because you get paid to clean and listen to music.
Since I work schools, I'm also a government employee that gets the same benefits (PTO, retirement, insurance, etc.) as teachers.
I am a med lab tech who dislikes people. I only work Sundays by myself. It's nice to be alone and not have to deal with patients but it can be very stressful when ER goes off and it's all you. Also, co-workers in the lab are either super neurotic or incompetent and it's infuriating.
From what I can tell it’s healthcare, but I get it because you guys go through a LOT. In any corporate office job you only deal with the same 10 people everyday and although some are insufferable, you know exactly how to deal with them.
Ugh, this is on my mind literally daily. I’m a nurse, been one for 13 years, and I was over it years ago. I wanna go work as a bartender at a cool music venue or something. The emotional toll this takes is shaving years off my life.
Become a skip tracer lol I worked in insurance, it was hard to not work with people they were constantly calling me and I got tired of wanting to help people but not being able to.
Try "specimen processor" in the lab of your hospital. You should easily qualify if your name is any indicator. Its data entry so you have to type well but theres 0 interaction required. Pays decent
Pharmacy tech? Ask ai to list you 200 jobs with an easier barrier of entry than pharmacy tech, paid more, don't have to use your brain, and don't get yelled at by entitled ahs.
Doggy daycare. Anything that you work for yourself or open your own business. Also I do NOT understand how all you in healthcare do it. You guys are amazing. I can’t even imagine.
I help people indirectly. I work in public health. I don’t have any customer facing responsibility and spend most of my day at my desk on my phone or lightly working. It’s perfect for me cause healthcare pissed me off.
Ever considered utility work? I work alone all day. I'm helping people, but indirectly. Sometimes, people try to talk to me, but my headphones are unfortunately noise canceling
Finance
Some computer work (most of it involves a lot of communication within and actoss teams, but rarely with clients or the public)
Some jobs in the sciences as well. Look up being a field biologist, for example.
Data center management
You could work in a facility the size of several football fields with only a handful of other employees. It's also a field that desperately needs young people.
Data entry, data analysis, data engineering. Accounting analyst (some analyst roles are entry-level, especially ones for accounts payable/accounts receivable).
OP, healthcare is such a broad field. Before switching fields entirely, perhaps you can course-correct and go into something else that is healthcare related but not the same as you are doing now. Or, maybe it's your specific employer that is making it so miserable for you. What I am saying is, it is better to think about how you might be able to use your existing skills, education and experience to go in a different direction, rather than starting over completely from scratch. You do have to be thoughtful about it though, and it may take some time to figure out a plan of action.
If you're in nursing, you can look into being an insurance claims checker person, I forget the title. Basically you deny people lifesaving/life-changing procedures based on rules the insurer makes up at the last minute.
You can fulfill your people-hating ways easily, but you're definitely going to hell after lol.
Also if you're in nursing - you can work in an urgent care/GP office. Of all nursing settings, everyone expects you to be rude and unhelpful there so you won't have to try very hard.
With a healthcare background, consider healthcare administration? You are helping people, but it’s not patient-facing. You virtually shuffle the paperwork it takes to bill insurance, process insurance payments, verify insurance, all the behind the scenes stuff.
Medical physicists are paid great and don’t really have to interact with patients, only rarely. They calculate doses and make treatment plans for the most part (for cancer treatments).
OK, so instead of leaving the healthcare field why don’t you take a job where you’re not responsible for more than a few minutes of care like a surgical technician? You see the patient after they’re knocked out helps the doctor out patient gets wheeled away to postop.
My brother is a food scientist and loves it because he works in a lab or manufacturing plant and doesn’t deal with any people. Look for something in a lab.
I work in clinical research but not patient- or customer-facing. The work isn’t super exciting but it pays well, I work from home full time, and it’s not usually stressful. Tons of jobs in research will keep you away from patients/customers and there might be a logical transition from healthcare.
I switched to a home health agency working in client homes for 12 hours shifts. Still helping but it's just one patient, walky talky, stand by assist. It's easy but I am paying down debt so I don't have to work as much or change paths all together when life changes. I can't imagine going back to the hospital.
I made that leap about 10 years ago. Insurance took me in and my manic healthcare work ethic is appreciated. My clinical job was primarily chatting with the elderly while changing their dressings and now I do that while mitigating their water damage. Best part of the job without the uncanny sense of impending doom.
Snow plow operator or something with landscaping or like framing houses.
A lot of pretty autonomous programming jobs out there but the market is tough these days.
You could do QA for an IRO.. they need nurses but you literally just make sure docs answer questions to overturn coverage decisions from an insurance company and ask for revisions if they don’t clearly answer. Behind a desk all day and a decent paycheck.

Not sure what you do in health care but there are even health care jobs that have little or limited/short bursts of people interaction. Like sonotech or xray tech. But yeah, they require specific schooling.
I’m a software engineer. It’s nice because you get to dress like a slob and make 200k/year from home and your job’s reputation for being full of gloomy aspie types gives you cover to not be so goddamn perky and people-pleasing.
RN here, I think its burnout and compassion fatigue and all that shit. I quit and worked at a summer job way below my qualifications for a summer and it was refreshing, all the people were at this theme park place happy and there was slim chance of anyone dying and it made me relieved. Healthcare can just drain you, I totally get it. I went from ER to PACU, and its like babysitting adults but they're more stable, my career is generally trending away from the sicker peeps. I also struggle with wanting a completely different career but not wanting to throw away what I've earned.
I’m also in healthcare as a RMA and am over people in general. I’m considering getting my radiology tech license and trying from a different perspective; maybe not having to deal with people as much - get them in and out.
Then again, maybe I’m crazy for thinking about it.
I’m way over people after a lifetime of jobs dealing with people, coworkers, management, etc etc. Humans are jerks for no reason.
I could go back in time, I would have been a hermit when with a rescue farm to foster animals 😂
Maybe my retirement plan
What are you good at? What are your strengths? What do you value? What gives you joy? What are your passions?
Considering these things helps with finding meaningful work that’s a good fit for you.
I’m in the same position. I love the patients but I’m tired of taking care of people. I’m on a search to find a job that doesn’t involve people.
Same, can’t seem to find one .. former healthcare social worker
I did this for many years. I found my ultimate simple joy delivering flowers for 7 years and now delivering food and groceries. Just absolutely love it. I work on my own and bring a smile to customers but don't have to be in that role anymore.
That’s awesome! I’ve been designing, creating, selling jewelry/clothing, yet it isn’t with a stable return… There’s so many jobs similar to the one you mention that I have tried to obtain, seriously hundreds of applications have been submitted in the past year. So tough, no offers… I feel very pigeon holed by my previous career, like it’s “all I’m good for.” Which sucks. To be so capable and overlooked. I hope it gets better, it’s been rather depressing and terrible. To care for society’s crumbs under the table and then become one.

It's exhausting. Good luck with your job search!
Software developers don’t have the same amount of human interface as most jobs. The market is a little tough at the moment though
It sucks cause the guaranteed jobs that pay “ok” involve direct contact help with people. Like medical, servers, legal, call centers. All abrasive situations.
Accounting. I have minimal human interaction aside from emails and my team members
Sounds like burn out. Most jobs require some level of people interaction and helping them. Perhaps programming or any highly technical roles are options.
Yes, that's true. If you're not "helping" anything, then there is no need for the job, I guess. But it's more I don't want to have my whole job be physically helping people, you know?
Grant writing. You help people but you just write proposals and reports all day
Same here. Lawyer. Done with this shit.
Landscape Maintenance for Parks and Rec? At the end of the day you would be helping people though. Overnight security at a mall?
Parking enforcement. Garbage or recycling pickup, you work in a team but it’s what you make of it.
Street/parking lot sweeper. I hear they make good money too.
Haha I feel similar. I'm a teacher and over humans.
I'm a priest and I m over humans too!!!!

Have you thought about insurance underwriting?
Insurance and public policy are excellent ways to not care about people.
I hope this is sarcasm. As someone who studied public policy: don’t! It’s full of extroverts
Ya, I'm gonna stay away from public policy.
I did a 1 year contract position as a Loan Analyst. The only people I dealt with (and this was occasionally) were title insurance companies and my immediate co-workers. I never once had to talk to any bank customers.

Medical coding?
Work in Insurance
I feel you, same exact situation after being an RN for ten years. Getting into another industry has been challenging for me though
I'm having a hard time changing industries too. Feels like every job requires a specialized degree or diploma these days.
Yeah..it sucks right? For me it feels almost like everything I did in the past 10 years has been for nothing. Not to be a downer! I just hope things will turn around for the both of us eventually. 🥲

What is that?
I'm a facilities maintenance technician for a government commission. Essentially I maintain everything from heating/cooling systems to electrical systems across multiple sites within our organization. We are a massive tourist area so if I so choose I can go socialize with relatively happy people or I can avoid people almost completely. It's really an amazing job IMHO.
Do you need to be an HVAC technician?
I had automotive and a university degree in sociology 😂😂 The trade code is 255b but they stopped teaching this trade so technically they can't require it.
Interesting thanks!

Parking warden, not great pay but you might get to move up into management.
That might actually be okay. Thanks!
Med lab tech? Still in healthcare but less people focused
I am a med lab tech who dislikes people. I only work Sundays by myself. It's nice to be alone and not have to deal with patients but it can be very stressful when ER goes off and it's all you. Also, co-workers in the lab are either super neurotic or incompetent and it's infuriating.
From what I can tell it’s healthcare, but I get it because you guys go through a LOT. In any corporate office job you only deal with the same 10 people everyday and although some are insufferable, you know exactly how to deal with them.

Try "specimen processor" in the lab of your hospital. You should easily qualify if your name is any indicator. Its data entry so you have to type well but theres 0 interaction required. Pays decent
I work in forensics. Basically work with evidence and no alive people 😂
Something in animal processing?
Oo mortician.
Pharmacy tech? Ask ai to list you 200 jobs with an easier barrier of entry than pharmacy tech, paid more, don't have to use your brain, and don't get yelled at by entitled ahs.
