    Current: 1 year, 9 months (there's apparently a 2 year life cycle to my current job, it's pretty much expected people leave after they hit the 2 year mark, I'm trying to advance up the ladder but its looking a bit bleak).
    Previous: 1 year 11 months then made redundant.
    and previous to that: 7 months and made redundant (or at least that's what they called it).

    Approaching 2 years at current place, so time to make that next strategic move methinks.

    7 years and 1 month with my employer. 6 years and 4 months in my current role. Had to change jobs as it involved working in dimmed light conditions. My eye condition makes it difficult to work for hours.

    20 months in my current job. I think people tend to move around a lot more than previously.

    Currently temping and have been for the last year. Current assignment I've been in for 3 months and set to last until at least the end of the year, previous temp assignment was 9 months.

    Prior to this, previous job 6 years and prior to that 12 years in the same job. I've been working for over 30 years but jumped around a bit in the early days!
    Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free :)
    Mortgage free since 2014 :)
  • Been with my current employer since I graduated in 2007 (gulp) almost 8 years already. I am looking forward to being there 10 years though as they give me another 5 days holiday :D

    I've been in my current job around 2 weeks whilst covering my old one (which I was in for around 2 years) for the next 3 weeks. Onwards and upwards! (or sidewards as the case may be).
    Thinking critically since 1996....
