It depends of the severity of the Disease and the physical limitations Still's brings upon the person

I don't work but I'm not in a position to hold down a permanent position (My trade was dentistry and my wrists and hands are simply not up to the task) I would think if you can work then a flexible job that is also low impact physically would be ideal, or working from home at your own rate/speed. I can only speak for myself and I know I wouldn't be a great hire, half way round a supermarket and I'm done so a job isn't on the cards.

I think that depending on the severity of their illness, people with AOSD could work in any field.

Yes however it depends on the severity and symptoms on your stills. Manual labour work will be harder if you are experiencing ‘classic’ stills symptoms e.g. joint pains, weak bones, fatigue etc.
You can still work in any field of work depending on how severe your symptoms are and how well managed they are.

Depends on which limited the have the disease, given that in all the patients is not presented in the same way.
According to my experience if I have been able to continue with my work, is something of office, but there are days that I see very limited and sick to be able to do well my work.
