Hello, Veeky Forums. Im a 24 year old guy whose only working experience has been one month of retail, after which I got "fired" (I wasnt even legally employed so they just asked me to stop coming). The reason why I got fired, I suspect, is that I suck at manual labor which was necessary on the job. Now, I came to realize that my biggest issue is that I dont know where to point at in life. In other words, im not sure what kind of job I could enjoy. So I was thinking to give a general idea of my (admittedly shitty) skills and to see if any of you could give me a hint of what could bring me some kind of purpose, or money at least, in this life.
SOME DATA -I studied Business Communications. Ended up mostly disliking it because in my opinion it lacked a pragmatic, "benefits" approach (instead it focused on marxist authors, social awareness, and theories). -I have done some public speaking, selling and business extra courses, but mostly to not avail. I am too inexpressive when talking with others and I have come to realize I "drain" them on conversation/im a very low energy person. -I am planning to move to Canada or somewhere similar (cold) and Im bringing a decent sum of money with me.

THINGS I CAN DO: -I can write and redact correctly (this text might not be proof of it but english is not my native language) -I can speak Spanish, English and French in a decent way. -I am VERY diplomatic. I always have a way of ensuring parties involved dont get hurt feelings and that thing get resolved peacefully. -Im very good at simplifying processes, that is to say, to make activities easier via skipping through all their unnecessary components. -Because of that, Im good at finding solutions for things, and at organizing actions and information in a pragmatic sort of way, identifying the causes of conflict/issue. -Dangerous work. I have no issues taking risks, (not monetary risks maybe, but life risks). I would even say I like it. However I believe im too old to enter the military already and any decent job regarding that seems to be just there.
THINGS I CANT DO -Be charming. Im not ugly or anything but as I said, im too low energy to charm people or to make them feel happy about talking with me. I am however always polite. -Deal with people for a long time. It tires me out. -Manual labor. As proven by my awful retail experience, I completely suck at that. With that I obviously mean complicated manual labor, things like carrying stuff im obviously ok with. -Complicated maths. Not my forte.
Anyways, this thread will probably go ignored but thats it. Obviously I lack a ton of experience to have big pretensions on my future job, but I want at least some objective to point at during these years. Thank you.

Are you black? The only people I've ever met who have been stupid enough to get fired from a retail job are blacks.

How long did it take you to write this?

Customer service via telephone or email. Don't laugh, find your niche in it and it can pay well. Politeness is key, as is being diplomatic and concise. Take a software or product or hobby or something you know well and see if you can get paid to support it somehow.

Honestly, get into a trade and work into management. Perfect place for people with no real skills, desires, or ambitions besides being "diplomatic" (a suck-up).

Around 5 minutes.
This could be.
That actually sounds like me. If it helps, I do have a skill, that is writing novels. But while im seeing to publish them I dont have high hopes on that.
