You possibly did not know this but there are way more quests than meet the eye. I happened to find this out accidentally when I went into my quest log (The O button) and clicked on the "All" button as it was not toggled on. You can find it on the right side up at the top above the quest list right below the word "Quests".
Once that was toggled on... Tada! Almost EVERY NPC had some kind of quest for me. Processing, Life Skills, and more! As you can see the green and gold quest icons in the picture below are showing for NPCs that don't usually give you quests. You can thank me later!
