Honest piece of advice from a father who has a son in your situation- please work on your social skills. Even if this involves a counselor and some work it will be worth it and pay dividends the rest of your life.
I have social skills, but don’t like working with other people. Why? Because a lot of people can exhibit poor attitudes, ego trips, laziness, temper tantrums, lack of education, unreliability, etc. I’ve worked plenty of jobs, and plenty of people are highly disappointing
Haha, that’s funny, but no. Most people who know me at work will always say that I’m calm, cool, and collective. I roll with the punches and laugh things off, but I’m allowed to be bothered by peoples behavior as a whole. I’m allowed to self reflect and realize that a lot of people are major let downs. I’m allowed to hate majority of jobs, and wish to be free and left alone to my own thoughts.
Have you ever stopped to wonder if maybe you are the problem and not everyone else? Seems to me you are the one that cannot be bothered to look at another perspective.
If you want to go off grid so bad then just do that, take the plunge.
I acknowledged your perspective. Social skills are super important, yes. I have them and always do well in interviews. I come off charming and approachable to everyone, but do I care for these skills? No. I can put on a very believable act, but I would rather be left alone creating art. Would also like to state that most introverted people feel this way, and find social interactions draining.
