I am more of a creative person, but due to pressures from family, ended up getting a Masters in a science field. Now, I will be graduating soon and don't have a clue what to go into. Any ideas for a job (preferably with flexible hours) that I could use my Masters for but wouldn't be hard science, like benchwork?

what type of 'science field'? There are thousands of masters degrees, in order to give pertinent suggestions, it would help to know more specific information about your academic background.

Do you have any interest in medical/science publishing? This has become popular at my graduate school. So has consulting, although they favor the PhD's. Patent law is another interesting option (you do not need to go to law school).

My degree is in Biology, if that helps. But the emphasis was really Biopsych. Patent law sounds interesting. I hadn't realized that that was something that can be worked on without a law degree or Ph.D. I have considered teaching. I don't have much experience, though :-(

Be more positive, upbeat. What have you liked to do? Do you want to work alone on projects or with others?
Treat all of us as potential employers, which we are. Don't just exude bad vibes.

I doubt someone with a master's would be employed doing "benchwork".
Do you like science writing?
Do you enjoy the psychology part of biopsych? Perhaps you could pursue a career that leverages that part of your education.
What do you like?
Are there any career fairs held at your university?
What about something in the marketing field?
Re: teaching. I don't think I'd want my children taught by science teachers who "hate science"...

You can be a registered patent agent without going to law school you need a science degree and to take the patent bar. A lot of law firms recruit people with science degrees and then let you work while going to law school at night. When I went to law school the patent law firm paid for tuition and books plus a salary of 90k a year for a commitment to work there. Some patent firms in NYC that still might have such a program are Kenyon and Kenyon and fish and Richardson.

Oy. If you hate science, please don't teach science.

What about research studies? Such variety of opportunities there without having to do analyses or wet labs.
ETA: this post is from 2011. OP, I wonder what you ended up choosing
