Idk if this is the right comm, if not, please do not hesitate to beat me over the head with a large stick.
Necessary background: without doxxing myself, I'm 21, I live in the US, in a red state, and I have hella ADHD. I've only ever had two jobs in my life, one when I was sixteen, and one when I was nineteen, both in the food service industry. I live with my dad and stepmom but I've been paying for college with inheritance/social security money I saved up from my mom who passed away a bit ago. Anyways I'm taking this semester full time and I don't have enough in my bank account to pay for it and I REALLY don't want to take out a loan. My family is willing to help out this time but I need a job for future semesters. I have zero work skills and I don't want to get a job in the food industry again since last time was one of the worst periods of my life and I genuinely wanted to 300gorillion myself. Since I have ADHD my motivation and executive functioning are both pretty awful so I'm scared to get a job while I'm also taking a semester of college but it's looking like that's what I'm gonna have to do anyways.
What do I do? Does anybody have suggestions on what would be a good work environment that doesn't involve food but is still entry-level/wouldn't involve working for like Amazon or some shit (although monopolization will inevitably have every job mean working for Amazon so maybe that's not as worrisome as it seems).
Thank you in advance, sorry if it's wrong comm/dumb question.
See if you can get an entry level job working for the city. I don't know where you live but I know where I'm at they're hiring everything from pool attendants to library assistants to garbage truck driver trainees. There's also temp work - continuing with the city theme you might be able to get a job related to the upcoming election, or if you need something longer term a temp agency might be able to hire you for something like data entry or whatever. It'll be boring work but there won't be customers which is the main reason why I hated food service. My last suggestion is something at a big box store like Wal Mart or Target, specifically unloading the truck/stocking aisles, which is physical work but it's at a time of day where there won't be customers and depending on your management (roll of the dice here) you can probably do it while listening to music or podcasts or lectures.
Honestly not a bad idea, especially the library assistant part, a chill, slow, inside job is something that appeals to me. Thank you! :)
