How long have you been at a job?

I've been teaching with the same public school board since 1997 ... I was on a medical leave of absence for about ten years right in the middle so I have only been back in the classroom for four years now ...

20 years (this year) at the same company and same job…purposely. 😁  14 years at my previous company (same department) but at different levels/management positions.

the longest I've been at one company is about 12 years, and that was my very first corporate employer... the company spun off one of its divisions to become a separate entity, so we became a different company whether we wanted to or not.  After that experience, I didn't feel the same 'company loyalty' I had felt previously.  So we decided to move across the country.  Since that point, the longest I've been at one company was about 7 years or so.

The older I get, the less patience I have for employers who can't get their sh*t together, maybe??   lol.   The closer I get to retirement, the less I feel like I want to put up with crap just for a good paycheck and decent health benefits...

17 years DH and I have owned our own business. He was doing this work for 9 years before.

This is my 23rd year of teaching, my 18th year in the same school district.

I checked the 20-29 box but it doesn’t exactly answer the question. I’ve been self employed pretty much continuously since 1996, but my business has pivoted multiple times in that span of years including a huge pivot in 2020 when I went in a totally different direction after only working it barely part time in the 4-5 years prior to that.

I’ve also been DH’s part time bookkeeper/office manager for several business entities since 2001, but again the individual entities have shifted and changed over the years while the job itself has stayed mostly the same.

Before this, I never stayed in a single position for more than two years.

I've had 3 jobs since graduating college. The first was 2 years. The second was 10 years. I've been at my current job for 22 years.

This is my 25th year of teaching.  I have always been in my current district in some capacity, but 4 of those years were subbing (long term subbing for three of them--a lot of weirdness and budget cuts early on during the Minnesota Ventura/conservative years).

I answered 20-25, but officially I am on year 19 of continuous/renewed contract.

This is my 30th year! 

I am feeling it and am looking forward to retiring in a few years. 

I voted 3-4 years. Because we moved frequently due to DH's career, I was never able to stay anywhere longer than 3 years. When DD started high school, I finally threw in the towel and retired from working. That was 20 years ago. It was a good decision because there were 3 more transfers in a 10 year period.

I have been doing the same job for 26 years, but have been with my recent company the longest for 16 years now.

Doing the same job for over 20 years, but five years is the longest I’ve been at one facility. The hazards of being a military wife 😉.
