Work for a non-profit grocery co-op like IGA or Certified; the customers dump on the grocers, who dump on the management, who will dump it on you.

Become a nurse. You'll meet your first sociopaths as instructors in Nursing School, then you will enter the workplace & have to deal with a plethora of the mentally ill, including physicians, other nurses, & most of all, patients (and their family members).

enjoy!

Post Office. You forgot to mention that you want to be ruled by overbearing, unqualified people.

Some day you may go postal. Then we will all see.....

Watch Geoffrey Lewis perform "The Dwarf". It is riveting!

Become a civil engineer. They pay us peanuts considering the cost of living. It's boring and extremely stressful sine there is zero job security, and our main job is to just cheerfully accept abuse from clients, while repeating "the client is always right". Expect to work extreme hours for months to meet a deadline, only to get laid off as soon as the deadline is finally met (though I personally have been able to avoid layoffs so far). I wouldn't go so far as to say that most of my coworkers are sociopathic, but many (not all) of them are unpleasant.

retail/restaurant management. Long hours, low pay, customer is always right, no benefits, and dependent on the day it's either dreadfully boring or crazy busy
