I had a handful of jobs but the longest was 13 years, and you?
My profile says I worked for 20 years as a computer programmer/systems analyst. 7 of those years were with other companies, the longest I was at one company was 13 years.
Oh, I don't even count the years anymore. Working at the library is kind of like being a bartender. Sometimes, they come in tipsy, and I hear all sorts of things. A great place for character study.
I was a teacher for a little over 37 years...28 years in the same school. Moving around the country was the fun part. Being in a large school gave me the opportunity for different assignments.
I had a job for 5 years and then when I got married I started my own cottage industry painting Christmas Ornaments. I cut them out of old fruit crates tossed away and picked up behind a grocery story (with the owner's permission). I did that for 15 years and worked (painted) twice as long hours as I did at my 9 to 5. I loved it until my fingers gave out :)
oh the other 7 years were with other computer programming/systems analyst jobs at other companies Sue. The 13 years was the longest I was at one company.
Twenty five plus years as a medical transcriptionist - both in the office and at home ...only good thing about being home was i could watch these four guys of mine but hard to get work done. shortest time was my first job in a factory putting parts in a color TV system..hated it...3 months and that was it.

Oh, I was in the classroom a little over 5 years. Now I'm at the library and I started as a clerk and am now a cataloguer.

I was a teacher 25 years, but moved around a bit.
Something like 20 plus years, but it was like different departments as I travelled up, through, and around in the corporate system.
That's great! I guess my shortest gig was a DJ at a radio station. I learned there were certain people I didn't want to work with.
I taught for 31 years at two different schools. -Jenn

Hmm... Me... maybe 10 years!
I was a bead artist, teacher, author, designer and sold beadwork all over the world for 50 years.

I'm confused. Your profile says you were a computer programmer for 20 years, does that mean you only really 'worked' 13 of them? ;-)
