Preferably at least somewhat permanent employment that you can potentially have for years (so not one-off jobs).

Longest: 2.5 years as a system designer for a logistics company
Shortest: 6 months working remotely as a comic editor

I'm having doubts about my current job so that's why I made this topic lol

I'm only on my third job right now, which I've had for six months, but I hope to be at for many more years to come. I can only compare my other two jobs:

Walmart: 3 years
ER scribe: 9 months

Longest: 11 years as a mainframe computer operator.

Shortest: It's a tie (or very close to one) between 3 months as a cashier (had to quit because of school) and seasonal work as a stockroom employee.

Longest 10 years (then I left the company and am now at my current one for a year, but it's my career so really I've been in my current job for 11?)

Shortest? I guess a few months at CVS or blockbuster as a kid.

Longest: Since my third year of college, I've been tutoring. I honestly don't know how to count this since there were a couple pauses while I decided to try getting my teaching degree and actually working in a classroom for a year, but this job has been on the side for me since 2003.

Shortest: 2 weeks. I got a job working in a warehouse, and they put me into a weird made-up position that wasn't working out. Then they transitioned me to a more normal job after that and I got my ass fired by not showing up one day.

Longest - just days shy of 10 years; this is how long I was with the company, I got a promotion after 8 years so I guess technically 8 years in one position
Shortest - two months; it was a set time-frame from the start

Besides those two the only other job I have had is my current one, which I have been at for a little less than two years.
