I was at my last job (my first "real job") for a year and a half.  I've been in my current job for almost 2 months.

The office I work at now, I've been at for five and a half years, but only part-time.  (The most I ever worked was 20 hours a week one summer.)  But I've had several different positions during the time I've worked there, in several different departments.

Almost 1.5 years...Not sure whether I'll keep on plugging along here or take a position I was just offered in SD...Such a tough decision!

Me, too, 5 years...first "real" job though I call it suffering now b/c I hate it with a passion. I am almost finished with a B.B.A. minoring in Accounting. You know what I really want, not to work in a big company. The problem is I live in this small town that serioulsy has nothing! So, I could drive 45 minutes, but in the winter in MN that's something me--afraid of the snowstorms--couldn't do. What about a home based job?


 


Dailycandy.com -they are looking to hire sales associates for some of their regions. It's home based. I really wonder what it entails. I read the job description, but you never know. I would love it! I should try..even if I get turned down..at least I tried, right! Maybe that would give me the boost to try again...and again...and again..until I find something that I will like (and not hate).


 


It seems like US companies have mega-issues with keeping employees happy? On average, just from this poll, it feels like no one stays but a few years.

What do you, Jocey? I just wondered...loving my job would be a good thing, but I hate it!
