I have been a TL for a few years now and I honestly feel like I've barely started learning everything I need to be successful in my position. Quite honestly I'm failing miserably at my job. My peers try to lift my spirits that it's not me, it's the company but I'm pretty sure it's just me. I have no good ideas, I'm basically a "yes man". There are TMs that have more ideas and knowledge of my area then me. I feel like completely lost in a hole when I'm at work. I constantly wish that I had never applied for the TL position(although I do enjoy the rotating weekends & pay, it doesn't seem to help my state of mind). I don't know if I'd be more successful if I was in a different area of the store, but I have thought of demotion a lot. Only problem is that you pretty much have to prove yourself incompetent through a doctor or move in order to demote.
Has anyone ever felt this way? Do you have any motivational quotes or ideas on how to get through the day? I'd ideally love to get another job but until that happens I'm trying to figure out what to do with my target career. I can't honestly take much more of this leadership role I'm in and I have nobody to blame but myself for it.
