been at your current job? What's the longest you ever stayed at a job? What's the shortest amount of time you've stayed at a job?

I have been here for seven years ( I just got promoted yay!)

The shortest I have worked is 2 days ( The other store caught fire and the workers there had seniority over me).

I've been at this hospital for 1 1/2 years. The shortest time was a part-time gig I had that lasted for 1 day. The longest was my stint at JC Penney through high school and part of college for 4 years.

Current job...it will be 4 years on the 27th of this month.

The longest was 5 years. I doubt I will break that record at my current job. A sista is looking right now.

The shortest was 6 months. Supv for Macy's Customer Service. That place was HELL ON EARTH.

Its funny but every job I have had (with the exception of one very forgettable experience!) has lasted approximately 18 months. In some instances, I changed 'jobs' (different responsibilities or a promotion) in the same position or just stayed with the same company in a different position. I guess 18 month is my boredom time period!

I have been at my current job for 2 and a half years. That is my longest. The shortest I lasted was 1 month at the Limited. (That particular store sucked. Maybe that is why is now CLOSED!)

My boredom point is about 18 months but I have stuck it out here because...well I felt like i needed some job on the resume that looked like a significant amount of time! But I am currently looking...

5 years on Nov. 20th, but I'll be teaching f/t (hopefully at the same school where I am now) after May '04!

Until then, I'll just be where I am : rolleyes: - my longest stint ever.

Been at my current job for 2 years.

Longest was 3 years.

Shortest was when I did orientation at Old Navy and decided to quit and work at Verizon. After that my next shortest would be Verizon and the US Postal Service (3 months each).

Current job: 2 years 4 months

Longest job: 7 years--the job I had before this one. It was my goal to be fully vested in the retirement plan! LOL
