One of my first jobs after I was just starting to get my IBS under control was filing, and it was PERFECT. I spent all my time alone in a large documents control center (big closet with files) and I didn't have interruptions or visitors. There was a bathroom next door I could duck into too.

The worst jobs were office receptionist jobs I held while studying for my GREs. Anything with a ringing phone is terrible for stress. That plus the fact that I couldn't go to the bathroom cos it is a very visable position, and usually there was no one to cover. Heaven forbid I race to the restroom and the phone starts ringing off the hook!! Yes, that was bad.

But anything where you can be alone, and you have all your work in front of you for the day, and no phone and no awful surprises is great for an IBS-er, I think!! There are a bunch of temp jobs you can find like this too.

Good luck!!
