Javi: His current job is construction which he's been doing for about 5 years. I checked one year for him because he just got laid off from his job and started his own business.

Just couldn't stay my @ss away!

Just finished year 7 with this school. I taught a year at a private high school and another year teaching frosh English at a university in Louisiana as well. I love my job.

P has worked at his university for 3 years, but of course has no job here yet.

I've been here 3 years in September. Before that, I had been at my other job for 7 years. If the whole place hadn't closed, I'd still be there.....I wish I was still there.

Andre's been at his job for about a year and a half. He'll stick it out till he's promoted to assistant manager....sometime this year. Then, who knows. Some days are defintely better then others.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

I've been in the same government deptartment for three years, but I've worked for three different areas in the same dept in that time due to promotions. Is that three jobs or just one?

My SO has been in the USAF for 5 years and has just signed on for another 4.
