Little Lulu has a good idea. I was thinking maybe look into jobs at morticians, see if your experience could transfer to some job with them. All businesses are basically the same, sales, accounting, customer service, administration, etc.? I have moved sideways a lot; my elevator didn't really do up/down

I read Barbara Sher's books, Barbara Sher's Official Website especially her first one, Wishcraft and that got me unstuck from a couple jobs/places and moving forward. Your local library should have her books or Wishcraft is free online. Any of her books should get your juices going so you have a bit more hope and some ideas of things to try. She's big on forming friend groups and the fact that a friend will know a friend who knows a friend, etc. who can get you an intro to someone who can help you. My stepson does that with his business. Maybe join a breakfast peer group (like my stepson belongs to)? A networking group?
