I was given to stock due to my seniority - but I recently discovered that everyone has way more then me :\
But being at a job many years these days no longer guarantees security. And that scares me because I think after being at one job so long it’s harder to find something new. |
Over 22 years.
For various reasons, though, I might have to leave. And finding a new job after that long is daunting.

since 1988 with the same company. I do think it's a generational thing. and I've been happy almost all of that time.

Do we work in the same company? Lol
I feel the same about starting over. It is hard but in my case I think I’ll be so much happier.

I've been at my first job post graduate school for a little over 2 years. The pay isn't amazing and the work environment could be improved, but it's close to home and has flexibility in the hours when I need it. I also really enjoy what I do BH.

7 years would love to quit because my boss is a very difficult person to work for. But I work part-time in an industry that has very few part time jobs so I'm a bit stuck...

Currently almost 16 years BH. Have an amazing boss and they're pretty flexible when I have to take off if kids are sick or have school performances...
My first job was 2 years. A new manager was verbally abusive. I had been working there for 2 years and he had never worked in that industry. He sweet talked his way in. I had to teach him some of his work and also had some jobs not under his jurisdiction. Her turned the owner against me claiming things I never did but he did, like instant message friends.
Second job was 6 months. The owner was also verbally abusive. He didn't pay me for a few months. Erev Sukkos my husband came to check if I was ok as it was very late and I hadn't come home. I wasn't answering the office phone. My boss yelled at my husband that he's not letting me leave till right before YT. He then threatened my husband... I left with my husband and continued for another month after YT till I got sick and had to take off. At that point, I realized it was affecting my health and never returned. Shortly after I found my current (third) job.
