Doomer, Autistic, and lazy with a Bachelor’s Degree in Canada. How to get easy WFH Office job?

I live in the Gatineau-Ottawa area and was considering returning to technical school just to try to get more WFH opportunities but is it really necessary? I already have two Bachelor's Degrees (one in Psychology, the other in Education, and in both cases graduated Magna Cum Laude). However I'm actually lazy and was only a good student because I am good at sitting, listening, and studying. I found out that even with exposure, I just won't ever enjoy having to do highly social/demanding jobs. My main work experience was just a contract online grading job during COVID. I liked the flexibility and lack of a commute so much that now I never want to go back. However, when COVID died down, so too did my contracts. Now I'm looking at a 3-year technical school that starts later this month, but as that time approaches I just wonder if I really…

I already have two Bachelor's Degrees (one in Psychology, the other in Education, and in both cases graduated Magna Cum Laude). However I'm actually lazy and was only a good student because I am good at sitting, listening, and studying. I found out that even with exposure, I just won't ever enjoy having to do highly social/demanding jobs.

My main work experience was just a contract online grading job during COVID. I liked the flexibility and lack of a commute so much that now I never want to go back. However, when COVID died down, so too did my contracts. Now I'm looking at a 3-year technical school that starts later this month, but as that time approaches I just wonder if I really want to go through with a whole 3 years of school on top of two Bachelor's Degrees if there's another way.

With that being said, I'm wondering what the easiest way is to get a chill, WFH office job? The issue with teaching is that there's not really any downtime unless I go for an asynchronous teaching job, and I've tried, but there aren't a lot available. I'm looking for one of those jobs that are slow paced and chill where you don't actually work the stated number of hours (sometimes more than that). However, it's always been pretty unclear to me what I can actually apply for. Most jobs have such heavy requirements, in experience or otherwise, and the good WFH jobs are difficult for me to figure out before actually experiencing them myself. I hear people lie on their resumes a lot to get ahead, and this whole system just makes so little sense to me; probably because I'm autistic.

TLDR; Have two Bachelor's degrees, I am lazy (support antiwork basically), don't want to go back to school if I really don't need to, just looking for a chill WFH job. The pay is not very important. It can be either a chill full-time job or a part-time job.
