I currently have a job where I work part-time in an office with only 3 other people. For the most part it is quiet, but I dislike my coworker and it is awkward at times when it is really quiet for hours and I have this intense fear of answering the phones. I use to work from home doing different phone jobs, but I felt better doing those alone at home without anyone to hear me say something stupid or not answer a question correctly with a customer. It took me a awhile to find steady outside work where I don't really have to communicate with people and now I have that job, but I am not paid enough to really do much and I will be needing more money. Basically what I am getting at is how does everyone cope with social phobia financially? Does anyone get money from the state, deal with jobs they dread, work from home, get money from parents or their partner if they have one?
