So I developed a chronic illness years ago. It makes working outside the house pretty much impossible for me. I ran my own business for a good while, but it’s struggling. I have all kinds of random skills and abilities, but I don’t really see how they fit together in the context of employed work, so for all intents and purposes, I would have to consider myself as someone with little experience regardless of what I might do.
In the meantime, I’ve been studying web development, and that’s probably what I’m going to try to do, but I was just wondering what other realistic possibilities are there out there for someone in my situation? I just want to see if there’s anything I’m not considering.
This sounds promising. I wonder if there’s customer service jobs like this centered more around typing rather than talking? I can talk to people well enough, but depending on the day with my health stuff it can really take it out of me. Typing meanwhile, I could do for longer stretches.
I’m sure there are. Many companies do offer chat and email options for customers. I would probably guess that those get outsourced a lot more than the phone positions though, so it may be difficult to land one.
