A sitter? What's that?

I've had 9 jobs, many times two of them overlapped to get more hours.

I worked 3 at one time thru my senior year of college.

I only have had like 6 or so. I have been with the same department now for 4 years. Just had different job duties.

Most of the jobs I had were part time with crappy pay. To top it off I was treated like **** so I moved from job to job.

Ive been at my current job for almost 4 years.

Starting with my first paper route at 13 (yes, it's a job for kids who take it seriously like I did), I've had nine jobs. Five were part time jobs just to make money, four have been since I graduated college. I think the job I have now will last the longest of the nine so far, although the indoor sports center gig lasted seven years, and I have been at my current job for two.

In order:
Paper route
Grocery store clerk
Tool manufacturer
Indoor sports center asst manager
Frito Lay warehouse guy
Payroll rep
Payroll Supervisor
Human Resources Business Analyst
System Administrator

gallery sitter: one who watches the gallery while people go in it. makes sure its generally clean, if there's crap to be sold, I'd take care of it.

Somewhere around 20 to 30, including short term temp jobs.

The shortest job lasted a few hours. The job I have now I have worked for about 10 years.

Full-time - six - which includes being a taxidriver for a short spell between other jobs.
