What are some jobs you guys work in that you think are suitable for ADHD?

Iā€™ll try my best to keep this as brief as possible:
Iā€™ve been working in some form of customer service or sales for about five years now (Iā€™m 22, male if that matters). I donā€™t hate it, but I dislike it enough to know that Iā€™ll never be dedicated enough to move up to any form of management, even though Iā€™m good at managing other people. Iā€™ve dropped out of college twice, despite making passing grades, because it was just too draining. I think we probably all know that feeling of ā€œbuild-upā€ that happens leads to a long crash and burn. Iā€™ve been considering HVAC, plumbing, waste management, something in IT, etc. Basically just jobs that either from what Iā€™ve heard donā€™t have a lot of customer focused aspects and just require doing things with my hands and problem solving without too much personal risk.

Despite graduating second in my class and my family telling me Iā€™ll be rich, Iā€™ve finally started coming to terms with the fact that Iā€™ll probably never be, and that Iā€™d just like a career that pays enough to put some money away for the future, pays for a few hobbies, and pays enough so that I can live independently in a place that isnā€™t at risk of being broken into.

Are the jobs Iā€™ve listed good options? Or do yā€™all have some other suggestions for me? Iā€™d appreciate any and all advice right now because Iā€™m completely overwhelmed.
