I've been contracting to the same company for over 8 years now. But each project only lasts 18 months to 2 years. It's partly convenience (I get asked to apply for another project) and partly laziness (no need to look too hard somewhere else) that I'm still here.

I want to come work for you when I retire!!!

20 years installing phone systems and now I work for myself in a totally different industry for the last 2 years.

26 years and happy I survived several rounds of playoffs.

30 plus years at Louisiana State University and the last 5 retired!! It's a tough job but somebody has to do it!!

Just under 18 years. Started with Merrill Lynch - got taken over by Bank of America about 2 years ago. I work in a print/mail facility. Our plant's work will be migrated out of state later this year. I've survived rounds and rounds of layoffs until now ... Worst case is a decent severance package and unemployment. I'm a lot better off than many, but I'm still felling pretty cruddy about the whole thing. Worst part is having a major role in the project to eliminate my job.
