hi! i desperately want to get out of customer service, but i have no idea what to do next. does anyone have any suggestions on how to figure out what kind of jobs you would like and also have experience to apply to? i’m stuck because i do not know where to go from here, but cannot start over and take any sort of pay cut. ready to start applying because i am burnt out, but have no clue what to apply to. thanks!

My manager asked me to ask less questions. Lately I am receiving negative feedback that I find unfair. I've a different perspective and this request doesn't go with my personality, my role and with the fact that I am working remote. I am very independent, but I need validation on final things I do as I am not a manager plus, I am a curious person who likes to interact and to learn more. For me questions are a way to improve and to find new perspectives. This makes me feel sad and not motivated
