Longest amount of time you've held a job?

3 years. I always get laid off or the company goes out of business every 2-3 years. My friends call me the black cloud. Majority of the companies I have worked for have gone out of business.
 
About 6-7 years. Started under the table when I was 12, and worked very light part time until I was 16, then was officially on the payroll. Worked there through high school, and had to get done when I moved for college.
 
7 years at Disney.

Greatest job ever!! How can you go wrong working at the happiest place on earth?
If I had a million dollars but was forced to work that is where I would do it. Drive a boat around or the monorail and just talk to people from all over the world and have a good time.
 
11 years at my very first real job (government contractor) out of college. Then I went on to work for 6 or so start up companies, all but one of which crashed and burned :'(. The last 4 years, I've worked for a design services company.

Click to expand...

what kind of design services company do you work for?
 
Just short of 7 years working for one of the local electrical utility companies.
It was a good job, not the best money, but they didn't work me too hard either...but I never could adapt to the "we get paid by the hour...slow down." attitude.
 
An official working for someone else job? A little over 2 years.


EDIT: Just realized this is kind of a misleading question unless we also know the posters age (an 18yr old with a longest run of 2 years is not the same as a 60yr old with the same longest run). I'm 39.

Been laid off twice recently -- once in late 2007 and again in early 2009. Makes it hard to build seniority.

Been with my current job 16 months and plan on staying much, much longer.
