I have failed in every job I have ever tried to do. I suppose I am just completely unemployable sadly but I kind of wish I wasn't all the same.

A job that involves taking care of people, not necessarily a therapist or a housekeeper, rather someone who is able to provide some mental relief to others by giving my undivided attention to them.

Ah, I got it. Imagine a therapy dog or rather a cat, except its a human being impostering as one, and doing a good job at that.

What I really wanted to do was some sort of science profession or medical. It sucks though that I am pretty unintelligent. I'd never be able to do it. So next was just taking a job to see people smile. That used to make me feel so full filled and happy. To know I made a person's day better. I can't at the moment, can barely take care of myself.

My parents wanted me to be a doctor, but I don't like people, so that's a no no. I think if I had to have a job, I'd go for a science profession. I'd be a scientist or something
That honestly doesn't sound like a bad idea. Better capitalize on the fact that I'm a woman lol

I'm honestly not sure what I'd want as a job, and that's part of why I ended up here recently. My life feels very aimless at the minute, and it's hard to figure out what I actually want. I feel like the direction I'm going into at the moment is just because I wanted to follow in my dad's footsteps, and he kept trying to nurture the flame. I don't want to say he pushed me into it but, it's hard to say he didn't

Security guard jobs are a popular recommendation for NEETs. You just have to sit there and keep watch while "studying" on your laptop. No, you don't actually have to confront thieves, your job is to call the police when that happens and let them deal with it.
I second this, I'm trying to get a job as a security guard myself. I'm currently a manager apple advisor and I skip so much even though I need the money because it's so bad.

When people come in with issues they go through the people bellow me first (we call it tier 1) and then if they cannot fix the issue they go to us (tier 2) we have more tools at our disposal and then if those fail we write a ticket to apple engineers directly for further help. The tech part is awesome I really dislike apple but I love computers so much I let it slide the only bad part is the quotas we need to meet and just how awful people are. I feel like I've seen the worst in humanity at this job.

Me too. My parents wanted me to be a doctor but it doesn't suit my personality. They tried to push me towards that path but it's just not a good fit for me. Neither of them are doctors by the way, so I don't know why they were so insistent on me going to med school. They pushed me into being premed

Hi, I'm studying programming right now, I'm still a few years away from getting employed as a programmer, but I know some people who already have a job and work from home. Doesn't seem like a hard job, but it takes a lot of studying
What languages?

Interesting I found this thread... I'm starting my first ever real job soon since I could use the money. I don't know what job would suit me since there's not much that I'm very good at, but I applied for pushing shopping carts in a supermarket near me so we'll see if that job is good enough.

Is that super hard? I heard it was
It's the only language I know so I can't compare it to the others, but to me it's more about learning some algorithms and making them work together, I wouldn't say it's super hard

i've always wanted to become a chemical engineer and i'm currently taking it as my major. but i am worried that i am not gonna do well in the social aspects of it soon enough lol which is why i kinda regretted it, i should've stuck with what i know instead and went for computer science since i can work alone and online with it.

I don't believe in IQ either. I know someone that has an IQ of 89 that has done serious scholarly work and someone with an IQ of 123 that is one of the dumbest people I've ever met. Something about that test is seriously off. I can't say my dream career because it would help to ID me but it's in stem.

Almost everyone seems average until they're asked to problem solve. And even then it could just be that they have special skills or knowledge in one area. I find it almost impossible to tell unless I know someone really well.

Way back in high school we used to have careers advisers, things were alot cruisier than it is now. When asked what i had
in mind for a job, I remember replying 'beachcomber, watching the waves come in, picking up shells, putting down shells.....
..and after that,whenever he was patrolling during lunch break he would say..."found that beachcombing job yet?
I would say 'no not yet' & he would smile & continue on his way. strange the things you remember about school life.....

Sounds like a scam.

Why would anyone want to listen to an influencer who earns his living by saying whatever his audience wants to hear?

~~~
An autistic explanation: The table presents the IQ scores after the person picked the job and worked for some time. That is, they did not choose the job because they saw that it fit their IQ; they chose the job, and then we measured the IQ. (it is unlikely that your IQ and your future job are independent events)

What are the IQ and careers of IuFcUc? The description doesn't suggest any careers

"Some ir*a* individuals with high intellectual levels may be fairly effective in the sense that they conform to the requirements of any group that provides them security. However, once they meet the qualifications of the group, they have little need to be productive in order to maintain themselves. They are perfectly capable of thinking that since they have earned security (labor union status, a college education, a medical degree, tenure, etc.), the world owes them a living."

The median and mean IQ of IuFcUc would most likely be greater than that of an average person (though there may be variations...)

Are suggested careers necessary? Pursue what aligns with your goals.

If you have to choose a job, ensure it correlates with your aspirations.
If you are free to do your own thing (e.g., business), then go for it.

Although I am telling it to you from the perspective of an IRA (or IFA)

The problem is that I don't know what I want. I was looking back at the IFU description and saw this: "Later in life, the highly intelligent [IFU] may have considerable language or symbolic facility; this pattern produces such specialists as cryptographers and linguists. The symbolic language of mathematics and science are also of particular interest to this group."
