What are the chances of me getting a job in retail

Or anything other than cleaning?

I'm 35 and have no qualifications didn't even make it to the end of school.

My jobs in the past have been..cleaning, factory work, dinner lady, housekeeper.

Dd starts nursery in January and I'm all geared up to go back to work part time, but I suffer with sciatica and a bad back so really don't want to go back to house cleaning because of this.
I'd really fancy a retail job and I've just found one that is in my local argos 9am-1pm Mon/tues/Thursday/Friday plus overtime if wanted, it's perfect and would suit me down to the ground. But what chance have I got with no qualifications on paper Sad I don't want to look a fool applying for a job when I'm more suited to cleaning?

Agree with Worra, retail work is hard on your back, apart from your lunchbreak you will be on your feet for your shift.

If she’s only working 9am - 1pm she won’t be getting a break.
