I can't decide which job I'd want

I know it isn’t likely I’ll get offered all 3 jobs I applied to but I need to figure out the order of which one I’d accept.
I interviewed at a spiritual gift shop and an art supplies store today. I’m interviewing at a second hand clothing store Thursday.
Pros/cons:

  1. Spiritual shop
    Pros - you’re basically a counselor as people come in there for psychic readings too and tarot readings and such and talk to you about their problems, and I want to be an art therapist so this is in line with my career, I’m also spiritual myself and would like to be around spiritual people
    Cons - it’s a LOT of talking and selling, more talking than art therapy, and I’m autistic so this can be very draining for me and may make me psychotic. They were really busy when I was in there.

  2. Art supplies store (framing position)
    Pros - 30% discount and I’m an artist, work with like minded creative people,get to be creative
    Cons - it’s a framing position which seems kind of challenging, like framing art and posters and making shadowboxes, I’m kind of intimidated by it

  3. Thrift store
    Pros - I LOVE clothes and fashion
    Cons - it’s similar to my current job and I’m thinking I need a change

Can’t decide at all.

Also I’m about to start school and taking two art classes. So that complicates things. All jobs are willing to work with my schedule, but mentally things get weird .

It sounds like #2 is the best. It’s inline with your interests and schooling, plus you get a discount. Is there the possibility for advancement or different positions in the business as you gain experience?

For example when I worked in restaurants I didn’t do just do the one thing I was hired for. I started on dish washing, then moved on to the fryer, then the BBQ, salads, prep,etc… Got free food too. i eventually learned all the positions and recipes and they started training me as an assistant kitchen manager.

Yes they offer that there too. It’s a corporate store. I’m not interested in moving up too management or anything though. At least not for now if I don’t get into grad school I’ll have to reassess what I want to do
