Need a Different Job
So i just recently graduated high school, and i've been having a really hard time getting used to things. I go to a community college locally and during the summer i got hired as a cashier at this chain store in the mall by my house. The people that work there are really nice for the most part except for the store manager who treats everyone like dirt. Which ive also had big problems with. I just came to the conclusion that i am not a peoples person. Ive been downright miserable there because the rules are so strict and the days there are so long- and im only a cashier! I also have to deal with a lot of really nasty customers all day long and it's just getting on my nerves and everytime i'm there i feel like im in prison. I would just like some help as to what direction i should be heading in because i really want to get out of retail and customer service in general. Nothing like resturants or anything. I've applied at several different vet offices and stuff that isn't so business competitive- I would just like a laid back environment that lets me do my work in peace.
Suggestions?

Only one suggestion: keep applying elsewhere until something clicks. You're doing the right thing, but it's just plain harder to get the kind of job that you want, because such jobs tend to have a lower rate of turnover.
The holiday season famously brings job opportunities in retail - which I know you said you want to get away from, but there are openings in other areas besides direct customer service. Someone has to unload the trucks and inventory the merchandise, for instance. You might also try applying at shipping companies, as they are very busy right now.
