    Server admin, quite a lot. Data Processor, just the ability to type really. However in my experience I wouldn't say any IT role is particularly antisocial. Most will require you to work with a team and communicate with others on a regular basis.

    What do you mean by antisocial/reclusive? They're terms that are commonly associated with Asperger's syndrome. People with Asperger's tend to be good at engineering. See here.

    Data entry - I used to do that and hated it. It was like a prison/library.

    I'm not really sure this is the job for someone who struggles with human contact either. If they struggle to talk to people how will they cope when someone is screaming in their face?
