Or maybe your skills could be used in a different field, if you are trained in digital/computer field, then maybe these skills could be used elsewhere: tech support for schools or colleges or hospitals, IT, billing etc Or maybe corporate world isn’t your thing and you need something slower pace. Corporate business world isn’t for everyone
Thank you, Divine. My current position has certainly not been set up for success. My boss rarely implemented my suggestions; she sucks as a manager of employees; she doesn't hold meetings with me; she doesn't oversee my workload (I've had to come up with my own tasks, which then are limited because she hasn't implemented many of my suggestions and ideas); and we don't have team meetings where I can learn and contribute.

Basically, my job has sucked & has held me back from feeling successful.... I have been solo for almost three years and have barely been able to succeed, even though the stats on my resume show some amount of success with what I've done. Working from home all alone in this role hasn't helped either.

You've made some good points, ty.
