Im 16, help me become independent?

Question

im 16 years old and i feel like i am so immature and not indepent AT ALL. i never want to go anywhere bymyself, i always need my friend or sibling by myside, like i cant just walk to a deli and eat by myself i feel like a loner, plus i have no friends so i would figure i would be indepent by now right?

-most people in my grade (junior) have jobs, i want to get money but i have really bad social skills as you can see i have no friends, i might have social anxiety?

-so i want to get a job but the fact of being in a new place and surrounding where i dont know anyone kind of scars me, like the first day of highschool i was terrified.

-how was your first day of work expierence, i dont know why i dont want to work, im afraid to be social bcuz of all the rejection.

-also i dont want to work because i dont want to use a cash register(i kno that sounds stupid,) but i really cant count change and all that working and stuff, help me please?

- i want to try to get my social anxiety better and start to make friends maybe a boyfriend, so i dont want to work online and run away from my fears i want to make them better, i need help from you people to push me and give me confidence in order to do that.
