Re: QOTD
2 years in June.
No way.
Ditto this exactly!!!!
A little over 2 years
I'm not sure about that yet, depends on what happens after I get my RN degree & if I continue to work there.
Currently I am a SAHW. But, I want to answer based on my past job. My 1st real, I love this job, I was at for 3 years before I had to leave it. We decided to follow DH's career path, and that required us to move. If we had chosen mine I definitely saw myself retiring from there.
since monday.
yes - i run my own business now so there's not really anywhere else to go.
Blog a Log
It'll be 6 years in a month.
Definitely won't be staying here for too long. If I can't SAH and they won't let me work part-time then I'll be looking for a new job after the little pumpkin arrives.
3 1/2 years.
Yes, at least I hope so!
Good luck! I hope the job market has improved when you finish. I absolutely love nursing.
How long have you been at your current job? unofficially sinc 1997, officially since 2002. I started the week after i graduated HS as a temp/summer worker for data entry. Then i went to college & got a job at one of the agents office for the same company. I would come home and work here during spring break, xmas break & summers and the agent during college. then after i graduated I got a full-time job there. When i was a temp, i wasn't considered a "real" employee, so that's why it's offically since 2002.
Do you see yourself retiring from there? sure. i work for a really great company that so i don't think i'd leave unless i was laid off or fired. While i don't want to be doing the exact same job, i wouldn't mind working still for the same company. We have a good retention rate, we have some employees who have been here 30+ years.

I've currently been a SAHM just over 3 yrs. We've discussed me returning to work, maybe PT after all the kids are back in school. not sure what though...I have thought of maybe becoming a Professional Organizer, i could make my own hours & i'm the organizational geek!
Old Job: worked 7 1/2 yrs, i knew I'd leave when I became a mom, but if i didn't become a SAHM, no way would I have retired from there, I wanted out after 30 days!
