Question

What Careers would you advise to me?

I mainly just want to know where I should start

Here is some info about me

25 year old, male Business Administration Degree Lives in Austin, Texas

DISCLAIMER!!! Despite the fact that I have a Business Degree, the career you recommend does NOT have to be business related,...just a career where my degree COULD be applied. Example: "Social and Community Service Manager"

Here is some of what I am looking for in future career

1. Something entry level, with an opportunity to ADVANCE within the company and eventually make at least 50K (or more) a year

2. Does NOT require alot of math

3. PREFERABLY white collar

4. PREFERABLY no excel

5. PREFERABLY nothing sales related (but I suppose I can consider, if you are gonna suggest sales, tell me which type is the most lucrative and offers hourly wage/salary plus commission....in other words nothing 100% commission)

6. PREFERABLY something low stress

7. NOTHING Human Resource related (I have heard alot of horror stories from guys, and I frankly do not want to be apart of what I have heard)

I am NOT bound to Austin, but would PREFER to stay in Texas since my whole family is here

I have NO intentions of pursuing further education I only want work that requires a bachelors..school was an ordeal for me

I LOVE working in teams, in fact I prefer it

I'd prefer to NOT work with alot of customers (working fast food, and diners have ruined that for me)

NOTE* Even though I have a business degree, it does NOT have to be a business related career...just as long as it is one of those jobs where multiple types of degrees are applicable
