I’ve been searching for a job that allows me to do the same simple task repeatedly. Ever since I was a kid, I dreamed of working in a factory on an assembly line, putting two objects together. Unfortunately, that’s mostly a thing of the past due to automation. I even tried to break into the animation industry, hoping to do tasks like drawing in-between frames or moving boxes of paper, but those roles have vanished with the rise of digital technology. I thought about sorting grains at a local flour factory, but they just installed a machine that does that job faster and cheaper than any human could. People often suggest I try more complex jobs, but I suffered a head injury years ago and it has significantly affected my ability to engage in social or cognitive tasks. I struggle with things like taking orders at a fast-food restaurant due to my stutter and poor handwriting. However, I’ve discovered that I’m quite efficient at wrapping food—like bagels—at a rapid pace. Despite my skills, I can’t seem to find any jobs that fit my desire for repetitive tasks. I’m not even looking for a paycheck; I just want something to keep me occupied. If a bagel wrapping factory opened nearby, I would be the first in line to apply. I’m also hopeful that with the increase in AI data centers, there might be opportunities for simple tasks like dusting servers. If anyone knows of any jobs or volunteer opportunities that involve repetitive work, I’d really appreciate the guidance!
