I've noticed out of numerous people I've met over time that not many in my area seem to stick with their jobs for many years. Some I greatly understand why, such as getting another job with better pay/benefits/retirement, but I've seen some people throw away really great jobs for our area.
But that's not the part that blows my mind. The part that they keep getting opportunities at these jobs and they work them a year or so and quit. I know the whole "don't judge a book by it's cover" but when most people get these jobs they stay until they retire or die.
So my question to the rest of the world (SVTP anyways) is how long have you been at your current job? I'm not asking for the details of how great/terrible it is (you can share if you please), but how long have you been there? For those that are retired, how long did you stay at your final place of employment?
This October made 8 years for me, full time. I don't really count the part time I worked while I was in High School since that time doesn't belong/effect my years of service until I purchase it.
EDIT: Forgot to mention I'll be retiring with maximum everything in 19 more years at the age of 45, if I don't buy any time.
