rach 1 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 How many jobs you had then? Not counting short part time ones at college - more "career" jobs? I've had just a couple. My good friend from college has had 10 ( ) Link to post Share on other sites

Telleboy 0 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I had a look thru my resume to try and answer this one but its difficult. Being a seasonal worker you basically take what you can get. The longest job Ive had was Ski Patrol for 7 winters but the the summers works pretty scarce, so Ive done everything from Landscaping to the freezing works, Dairy farms, Deer farms, even 6 weeks on a pig farm but that sucked so I quit, spent a summer backpacking around south america and two southern hemisphere summers in canada. The longest I have stayed at a job was 9 months at Jomo Station in Niigata. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Just the 1 for me right now. No good that college jobs don't count. I had a ton of good ones. Link to post Share on other sites

RayInJapan 0 Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Excluding a few part time jobs when I was in high school, I've had just one for the last 25 years. I'll be retiring from it in a few months cause I don't like the way the war in Iraq has turned out, and I don't like the way my "boss" has deceived most of us...so its time to find a new path in life - still trying to figure out where, but it will definetly not take me out of Japan...

rachael 0 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 3 for me. I'm not into the mad hassle that changing jobs brings unless of course it is necessary. Link to post Share on other sites

Trying to look busy 0 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 6 jobs for me, not all on the up. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 My tally is up to 6 right now. Next one I am hoping will be self-employed and may that continue long into the future. Link to post Share on other sites
snobee 0 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 14 "real" jobs. Not sure how about perceived up-ness, but plenty of lateral movement. Never a dull moment, p'raps 'cept now. Link to post Share on other sites
veronica 2 Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I'm not sure I want to keep on flirting with different jobs, it seems like a lot of hassle and trouble to me - although if you can't find the "right one" I suppose it may be unavoidable. Got a Japanese lady friend who has had 23 jobs - all part time, the longest she has stuck at one is 6 months Link to post Share on other sites
