Your skills transfer more than you think. Scheduling, inventory, managing employees - all of that is valuable. Office manager or maybe something in operations seems like it seems like it'd be a great fit for you and with much better hours.

That sounds incredibly frustrating—especially when you’re carrying the responsibility without the authority to enforce accountability. After 15+ years in retail, it makes complete sense that you’re burned out. The good news is the skills you’ve built (leadership, operations, coaching, problem-solving) absolutely *do* transfer outside of retail, and many roles value that experience at a comparable salary. You’re not stuck—you’re just exhausted and unsupported, and that’s a tough place to be.
Do some brainstorming and jot down what your core skills are. Once you start listing them you may realize you've got more going for you than you realize. And think about where you'd like to be working. You could go into sales, logistics, operations, and so on. Think of places where you'd like to apply and write up a resume and go for it.

I've worked in retail grocery store, department store) since I was 15.

Management no matter where are VERY HIGHLY in demand
