Clerk, typist-clerk. What is your experience with these jobs? What other jobs can I consider? I only have a BA in Liberal Studies and a teaching credential. I want an office job now, something that lets me work a set time without bringing the work home. But how are office jobs like? Im very good at organizing. Do I have to get another BA in Business Administration? I just want a quiet office job that pays at least $2000 a month.

I've applied to these jobs so many times. I don't have any experience so I haven't had any interviews. So how did you start out with these jobs? did you do volunteer work in a office? or take classes to learn these computer software programs?

I have that women became extremely important in the US, taking the jobs of the men in the factories and providing weapons for the troops, 'Dear John' letters became big because women didn't need financial support of men. Also that on the home front there was no quietness or boredom, people were constantly working. Whereas on the front line there were often times of boredom, waiting around, etc. that were suddenly interrupted by attacks. What are some other differences?

Not the kind you work from home though. I mean the kind you go to a place of employment. What kind of training/school do you need? I don't really understand what the job is like and what you're exactly doing, so can you please explain what you do at your job? Also is it a good job for quiet introverted people?

I just started working at one this week, as a clerk typist. But this title doesn't tell you that I could also be put at the front desk. If put there, I will sometimes deal with angry customers who will curse at me and threaten me. I'm a shy person so I doubt that this aspect of the job is for me. I want to give the job a chance and I really believe in the mission this state agency but I was in tears a moment ago just thinking about it all. Anyone out there like this kind of work? How do you deal with the customers? If you are not an employee at a welfare office, I'd still like to know how you would handle yourself.

Although they say things go in cycles, you also see an accelerating rate of change of progression these days. Has the recession just sliced off jobs that never should have existed in the first place, meaning that we will continue to see a shortage into the far future?
