[loves2learn]

Holy crap. Tons. Lifeguard, water safety instructor, pool manager, annual fund caller, administrative assistant and various marketing and event planning roles.

[ThePolishKnight37]

Mostly retail. I have been in retail management for over 30 years. Now am just a flunky, do not need the stress of management. I work in grocery so I get paid pretty well. If i had to do it all over again I would have stayed in the job that brought to Seattle. It was one of two jobs i was excited to get up to go to. I worked in the Health Club industry. Started as an instructor and worked my way up to management, then my best friend moved to LA and I left the industry and took a retail job. It was a mistake. I should have stayed in Seattle. After 5 years of hell I came back.

[InfobotLives]

Maybe like 7 🤔

I was a female lapdancer, then I was a cop, then I was a rhinoceros and after that I was a bag of Cheetos, then a feeling, then a concept and now a robot.

[beebella]

A jack of all trades.

[NYCQuestions1976]

If you were only a bag of regular Cheetos and not a bag of Flaming Hot Cheetos, then you haven't lived up to your professional potential.

[MasseurDeMojo]

I have had so many jobs over the last 38 years, I have lost track of most of the jobs I had, before I went into the Navy. I actually have a document which list all of those jobs in a file. I really could not remember all of them in order. It must of been at least 8 to 12 jobs before I went in the Navy. It may be less than 12 or greater, but definitely not below 8.

[Lliam]

I think it was fifteen all together, beginning when I was in 8th grade, working on weekends in my uncle's gas station. That one and eleven more would have been before I was 26 years old. when I got really good job and did that for 30 years. After that, I had two more for a short while before I officially retired.

[ChrisMaster69]

2 jobs, however the first one in the Air Force, covered a load of different job types if you looked at civilian jobs that were similar.

Unlike a lot of other Air Forces, the RAF, employs its aircraft engineers in a number of very diverse roles. The principal being if you are clever enough to fix aircraft and their associated systems and modules, then you can do other stuff lol.

My current role has a lot of different hats due to the different teams involved.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

A couple of jobs when I was younger with cutting grass and knocking down weeds and making yards look decent, one time I was stung by 6 bees on my back and went to get checked out at the ER but they gave me a shot and sent me home, no allergy reaction but I was just shaken up, I also had a paperboy job for a while, After a while, it got to be too much cause of school work

[AndrewMG]

Oh so many... I was never given pocket money so worked ever since up to and during and after university...
1. Paperboy
2. Working for Royal Mail (postal services)
3. Working in food factory
4. Working in paper factory
5. Working as bar staff
6. Working as bar manager
7. Working as insurance broker

... The list goes on! lol

[TallAnon]

In different fields or at different companies?
Including internships I've worked at.. 6 companies, officially. 2 completely different fields, manual labour and software development. For the latter I went from programming medical equipment to game development, which is quite different.

[FoxnEagle]

Medical equipment to game development?
That's a transition... but I guess they both have a low health warning sound :D

[TallAnon]

Well, medical equipment was just so dreadfully boring that I went, lolno

[DarkCarousel]

I worked in retail for a long time and had a home business type of thing (that went nowhere, I might add) before I decided what to study at university.

[Titanic1912]

I worked at two sheltered workshops and a school. I was a brake assembler for Hell’s Workshop, a dental package assembler for Temco, and I was an after school care assistant for Kids R Kids Learning Academy.

[TsundereMatrix]

My last 3 jobs were all in retail/customer service. Now I work in film which is my first job in this industry.

[hannahjo022]

babysitter, housekeeper, tanning consultant (did it only for free tans), cna, and my full current job is physician assistant :)

[NightOwl8801]

Technically I have had one job going on for near 15 years...
But I was in the army for a couple years and I was with my local sheriff's office for while but it was unpaid , so three if you want to count them all

[exitseven]

I work in IT and people change jobs more than they cahnge their socks/.

[loves2learn]

They do that in all fields these days.

[exitseven]

@loves2learn When I first go into the field I had 3 jobs in one year. The first place went out of business, the second one got bought by a compertor and moved to New Jersey and the third one I resigned because I found a better job after about 4 months. A copple of jobs after that I ended up staying for 16 years.

[loves2learn]

Hubs was loyal to his company for 15 years and got zero appreciation for it. It’s just not valued anymore.

[exitseven]

@loves2learn Yes, I agree with that. THe whole time Iwas there I looked for a better job but I was really too old by then. At fifty I have sort of aged out of the workforce.

[loves2learn]

I suppose. When they hired Jr. Engineers and a rate higher than him and wouldn’t fix it. He knew it was time to go.

[exitseven]

@loves2learn After I was hired I found out that one of my technicians made more money than I did. He worked there for a long time and was at the top of the pay scale. My old boss (not the jerk that replaced him) actually corrected this and got me a decent raise.

[loves2learn]

That is a decent boss!

[exitseven]

@loves2learn Yes, If he did not retire I would still be working there.

[SphynxUK]

I’ve had 8 jobs.
13 if you include self employment jobs.

[Chris776]

At least 10, but I started working when I was a teenager.

[Leavesbound]

21 including a paper route but not including three businesses that I have owned.

[MCheetah]

About 35 to 40. I've worked every job possible that isn't illegal or requires a degree.

[RingOfFire]

Can't even count them. Got my first job at 14. Probably have had maybe 15-25 jobs... if you only count the full time ones... something like that. More if you count part time or temporary jobs.

[pleasestopthis]

I've been in my current workplace for 4 years and worked in another place for two weeks (in two different occasions) to cover a worker who was sick.

[Aimée__LJ]

I currently have 3 jobs, I have had 2 others in the past.

[johnsmithjs]

After high school 1 job during high school I can't remember how many.
