you don't have to describe them in detail with dates, not trying to get you to doxx yourself
but it's kind of A Thing with neurodivergent folks to have tried a lot of different jobs, and I'm curious about everybody's count
I think I'm up to 21 that I've filed taxes for, which doesn't seem that extreme for 42, except when you consider that I've been unemployed most of my son's 17 years of life because I couldn't handle parenting and that level of outside obligations, so most of those happened before I was 25 – so 20ish jobs between 15-25
how bout you, how many things have you tried?
11, I think, across 4 different sectors: college/work-study jobs, agriculture, food service, small business logistics. Some of those were short-term gigs though. At least 4 gaps of longer than a month where I wasn't employed or in school.
Been fully unemployed and living off savings for the better part of a year, but looking to boost the number, build savings back, and get some businesses going. With any luck, if the businesses take off enough, I'll be able to employ others in a cooperative model, and never have to worry about having to work on the extremely unfavorable terms of someone else again.
I thought it was just part of these times for jobs to only last a year or two. The longest that I've been on any one company's payroll is 4 years and some change.
