I'm looking for something somewhat enjoyable, relatively independent, with a minimum of social interaction, preferably something involving computer experience and fast typing skills, or at least mechanical equipment. Something challenging would be nice. And with a certain amount of freedom to eat whenever, listen to music, take short breaks, as long as the work gets done. Is there such a job? Or anything close?

You just described the job of a transcriber. Either medical or legal (you take notes either verbal or written and put them on paper in a way that makes sense to anyone who'll read it down the line) It's hard work, don't think it's a free ride, but you can work independently, work your own hours (if as you say the work gets done) It's a HUGE plus if you're computer proficient.  Again as long as the work gets done you can snack, eat, listen to music as much as you want. The downside is, you have to have training to do it and you have to be REALLY disciplined to force yourself to work to GET the job done, and that's not alwasy as easy as it seems.  Good luck! It's a great job

Go into the medical field and do acting on the side.  I'm a musician who went into computers and man am I glad I did.  Most of the professional musicians I know see music as work and they are all poor. I'm very well off and love music still.  It is my hobby.

You're going to do what you've always wanted to do: work from home. How I wish I had your computer savy, knowledge and expertise! I have to settle for encouraging people into giving me their old computers when they upgrade so I can clean them out and give them to needy people. One mother who had had a hip operation was able to work from home all winter last year, here in Maine, thanks to someone's generosity. Work from your home! You are your own boss. You can call the shots. You can either be affordable or impossible. You can be the guy people hire because his rates are sensible. That would be a daily cash flow... and the possiblilties are endless, because you have your home office from which you can work. You can hook up a second computer in your home to keep your business records so they are not accessible online (to anyone but you). Money, money , money! Start thinking money instead of being too old! Job one is: establishing a really great cash flow for YOU and your family. They are job one. When you work from home, suddenly, you are no longer at the beck and call of company offers in just New York City. Your office is the United States, period. When you get richer and can allow a sense of humour about all this stuff, you can extend your business to outside the states. Sound too good to be true? I told Matt he should work for himself. He is now in San Marcos, Texas, binding little copy books which he sells from his home. Self-employed; well off; happy. So - work for yourself. Be the boss. Be all those people who won't even look at you or treat you nice. I am sending this message with tons of positive, vibrant success energies! Give what I tell you some serious thought. Sit down, put your feet up and think about being the boss. The worker. The bookkeeper. The candlestick maker - and of course, the Bill Gates II, who retired early! (You think I'm kidding, but how can you know you will not be a real success???)  Best to you from G., South Portland, Maine, U.S.A.

Security guard for Steven Segal.\n\nFact checker for Michael Moore.\n\nIt's impossible to say what might be easy or not without knowing more about your interests.  About all I can get from the question is that you are, at least, smart enough to spell correctly and form coherant sentences (hey, don't knock it--it puts you in the minority on Yahoo Answers!).\n\nOne direction to start looking might be telephone support.  It's easier than telemarketing (you don't have to convince anyone of anything or make calls) and you can become an "expert" in a limited area pretty easily.  For example, you can become an expert in activating cell phones and answer the same ten questions all day long pretty easily.  And if you do come up with a really tricky one, you can bump it up to the next level of support.  \n\nIt doesn't pay all that hot, but it's really easy.  If you like the job, there's even a promotion path up through management.

What about a teaching assistant. If you have pc skills thats an advantage. You will earn good money and be able to help out the family. You could do freelance webdesign as as spare time occupation.

Check out gigs/Jobs on Craigslist.org (they have telecommuting jobs) and also see if any of your friends or family know someone who has a business and need typing, record keeping, web-search etc done.  I have actually asked small business owners if they need help and usually find one that does.\n\nGood Luck

I suggest you visit IOSCAR and take the questionaire.  It will give you a range of suggestions.\n\nYou might try IOSCAR; it's free.  It asks you questions and suggests occupations based on your interests, knowledge, skills, and abilities.  It also has a lot of information on occupations and on the outlook for different occupations.\n\nhttp://www.ioscar.org/tx/\nhttp://www.ioscar.org/tx/ip/ipinstruct.asp

I am currently a server at a restaraunt chain in my hometown.  I love what I do because I get to be around people ALL day.  And not just people but different kinds of people.  I thrive off of human interaction, it defines who I am and helps me learn more about myself daily.  I also enjoy testing my will power and seeing how far I can be pushed and still keep my cool.  I like testing how much I can handle as a human being and learning from the mistakes I encounter on this journey.

Well...how pro-active do you consider yourself? it depends a lot! but I'd say check all systems around, check servers status, browse some IT webpages in order to learn more, take a break, go back and keep looking around for new updates, make a list of current software installed on yor servers and PC's on the network then take a chat with someone there at office, NOT CHAT, and so make good friends around that way they'll ask you lots of questions that you'll be able to respond! Combine all this activities all days and or invent new ones, those are just samples, then you'll see how fun is your job!  Bye!

Candidates must possess excellent \ncommunication and organizational skills and be willing to work variable hours, \nwhich will include evenings and weekends and frequent 24 hour shifts on \ncall. Some overnight travel required, including trip s to primitive \ncamping sites on rainy weekends and endless sports tournaments in far away \ncities. Travel expenses not reimbursed. Extensive courier duties also \nrequired.\n\nRESPONSIBILITIES:\nThe rest of your life. Must be willing to be hated, at least \ntemporarily, until someone needs $5. Must be willing to bite tongue repeatedly. \nAlso, must possess the physical stamina of a pack mule and be able to go \nfrom zero to 60 mph in three seconds flat in case, this time, the \nscreams from the backyard are not someone just crying wolf. Must be willing \nto face stimulating technical challenges, such as small gadget repair, \nmysteriously sluggish toilets and stuck zippers. Must screen phone \ncalls, maintain calendars and coordinate production of multiple homework \nprojects. Must have ability to plan and organize social gatherings for \nclients of all ages and mental outlooks. Must be willing to be \nindispensable one minute, an embarrassment the   \nnext. Must handle assembly and product safety testing of a half million \ncheap, plastic toys, and battery operated devices. Must always hope for \nthe best but be prepared for the worst. Must assume final, complete \naccountability for the quality of the end product.

On-the-job training offered on a \ncontinually exhausting basis.\n\nWAGES AND COMPENSATION:\nGet this! You pay them! Offering frequent raises and bonuses. A balloon \npayment is due when they turn 18 because of the assumption that college \nwill help them become financially independent. When you die, you give \nthem whatever is left.

Sounds like a good idea, only you need something to do in between working and school that is fun so you can relax, that way you won't crash. Or you could just copy your homework so there's less work.

I think I can help you with part of your question, but you really have to dig down and answer this one for yourself. To find a fulfilling job you have to decide what makes you happy. I notice that you say you want to be outdoors. What else do you like that will make your job tailored to you? Do you like working with people, working alone, being creative, being given specific instructions, doing repetitive work, or something that changes from day to day? After you answer those things, then think about the types of jobs that would incorporate those qualities. For example, if you like outdoors, working with specific instructions and doing repetitive work you might want to look into construction, landscaping, working in a theme park, or something like that. The outdoor stuff is not really my area so I am sure you can come up with more creative suggestions. I hope this helps you get started.
