Hello. I'm new, I've read this forum frequently for the past years, but had never posted because never thought I could contribute with something to this forum.
Anyways, I'm 23 years old, still living at my mother's home and have never had a job, this is very frustrating, I'd love to live at my own place, so I decided to apply online at ups, I had read in this forum that working as package handler was a good job for social phobic people, and so yesterday was the first interview, of course just the fact of going to that interview was a very big effort. This interview consisted of a tour around the company and then some time alone with the interviewer, there were about 20 other people applying for this job and they all looked pretty cool, most of them were talking to each other, while I was in a corner all alone and scary. Then the interviewer called me and she was nice, I was trying my best to not look shy, but my efforts weren't worth, she said I couldn't be that shy with the other interviewer, I really didn't like that comment, isn't this supposed to be a job where being shy doesn't matter? anyways, she asked me if I wanted the second interview right away but I felt so frustrated for her having called me shy when I was making a big effort to not look shy that I told her to please schedule it for next week.
I was really exited about this job, its close to my house and I was gonna choose to work from 10pm to 3am at times where I suppose there's not many people.
have you ever worked at ups warehouse? what did it go?
thanks.

you could always work freelance from your home and then you could build up your portfolio and work on your social skills and when you feel stronger go out and look for a job then
