What's the longest you've ever held one job?
For me, it was at a car dealership for 11 years.

How long?

8 months - but in fairness, I'm still in college.
Also, that's 8 months non-stop - I've worked for them for considerably longer if you added all of the work I've done together - that's a research department in my university. Although - if you add together all the various jobs I've had at the university, that would probably strech to two years or more.

Currently, 7 years and I'm still there. Hating it, but still there
I'm only 25 so my only other job was about a year before I got laid off.

seeing that I have only worked a total of 4 years ....I have worked both jobs for 2 years...so my current job I have just reached my 2 year marker...
I've been at the newspaper 6 1/2 years - longest I've been at any job.
6 years. When I was a jewler.
3 years I worked in a gas station. Been at my curent job for 1 yr.
Current job: 5 years as of Thursday.
Best part is that as of Thursday, I get 3 weeks vacation time!
Prior to that was 3 of the longest years of my life at the most miserable working environment ever (stayed because I didn't think I could get another, better job...boy, was I dumb!)
I've been at my current job fro 7 years and 2 months, if I have my way I'll be here for 23 more years
As far as my second job, I started there for the first time in '97, quit a couple times, came back a couple times
came back the last time in 9/2004 so I've been there for 2 years and 2 months, if I would have stayed solid I would have celebrated my 9 year anniversary last month
I'm all about the long term

Does that count as a job?
