Jobs that don't require one to be computer savvy or do a lot of heavy lifting.?

Hey y'all, this is a long shot, but I could use some more opinions on it. My best friend is really unhappy right now. She's dyslexic so she's always struggled a bit with jobs that require reading, typing, working on a cash register, etc... so she's working a graveyard shift as a stocker in a Wal Mart. She really hates her job. She's a really dependable, responsible, reliable employee so she's been given tasks like scanning all of the labels on the boxes and unloading the truck and it requires her to lift big, heavy furniture all night long. She's burnt out but we're having a hard time figuring out what job would be a good fit for her. She's got a high school diploma with a special focus in photography. She's good with a camera and knows how to develop film (she had a job in a photo lab for a while and loved it, but she was laid off since unfortunately, that photo lab was in a Kmart that was closed). Photo jobs are rare though, so we're looking for something more generalized

She should go to a temporary agency. They will sit down with her and figure out what she'd be good at.

Reply:Cosmetology. You have to work on your feet, but don't have to use computers/cash registers often if at all. It also doesn't matter if you're dyslexic. I'm severely dyslexic and Sylvan helped me as a child.
Reply:mcdonalds is always hiring.
Reply:Have her check with the local newspapers. Our newpaper has freelance photographers where they go take pictures of what ever the newspaper wants and then they just e-mail the picture in and then they recieve a check for each picture.


Or maybe she could look into a receptionist job. Even at a local hotel or office. Just answering the phone and taking messages.
Reply:She doesn't need a job or career..she needs her own business. Here is one for her to look at. Best of luck to you both.
