Supply chain. You will need to talk to people, but it’s more numbers and problem-solving than it is making people feel warm and fuzzy. At least until you get into more management, and then it’s more about people in any job.
Believe it or not, a high school teacher. I’m actually really good at it.
lol sales
Im a forester. I work in the woods every day.
IT, and I talk to people, a lot…but a lot of work is on my own as well.
Retail operations management , I deal with very few customer and don’t have to do much with other employees unles it’s related to my job and that’s not very often
Sales. I’m a great sales person. A lot of introverts are in sales, self motivation is key.
Financial analyst. Good with numbers and I can do most of my work independently
Human Resources I hate it the toxic and n
I do administration for a non-profit and I’d day half my week I don’t talk to anyone except through email.
I’m a legal assistant. I hardly ever have to talk on the phone or speak to anyone other than my coworkers. I’m left alone most of the day to work on my tasks in peace. (Caveat that not all legal assistant positions are like this. It really depends on what area of law you’re working in. I work for a government regulatory agency.)
Free advice you didn’t ask for: trying to find “passion” in my career never made me happy or found me the type of job I could feel secure in and not hate after a relatively short time.
I like my job. I’m not at all miserable to go to work. I have enough reasonably engaging tasks that I’m never watching the clock waiting for 5 pm. Most days it’s more like, “oh, it’s time to go already?”
I’m not passionate about my job. I really like that most of the time, I can clock out and not think about work at all until the next workday. For me this is much more sustainable. I find passion in my activities and hobbies outside of work, and I find them more satisfying because there’s no pressure to monetize them.
If you don’t hate IT, consider becoming a developer. There is not a lot of talking and many jobs are fully remote
Pensions.
Unemployed alcoholic
i started in retail and now i work in HR. right now i do the same 3 tasks all day and message coworkers on teams when i need something to do.
i hang out in my cube all day except for when i eat lunch in my car
Analyst – barely talk to people, just work in excel all day
A pharmacist. I talk to people a lot but I enjoy the people I work with and I like teaching/managing patients’ chronic diseases in a primary care setting. However, you have to be very resilient and self-motivated to get through pharmacy school. But as an introvert with some social anxiety (for me personally), it can be rewarding knowing you overcame your fears and made a difference for your patients. What a lot of people don’t know though, is that there are many different types of pharmacists, not just the one you see at CVS or Walgreens. There are even some remote jobs in pharmacy 🙂
Water treatment
I’m starting out my career in marketing even tho I was told by superiors I’m not “outgoing or open” enough. Idc. I like it.
I’m a hairstylist, bad choice if you’re introverted but oh well. I’m going back to school to become a doctor
Data scientist. I look at numbers all day. And don’t talk to anyone. Not even my family.

911 dispatcher. And I’m super shy and introverted 😆😆
Here is a one for you I took to doing security currently 5y deep but looking at a career change since I’m board of it now wasn’t my first choice but it got me through some tough times
Heavy duty truck mechanic. Just me and the trucks most of the day, only 2 other mechanics in a big shop and I always have plenty of work to keep me busy.
Sales. Go figure.
WFH for a nonprofit organization. Have to speak to people, but I get to wear my pjs.
CNC machinist.
