I'm really curious about the ratios. My guess is that on average people get divorced less often than they change jobs. There would be exceptions, but at any point in their lives the average person will have had more jobs than divorces.

Interesting, and i would have to agree.

Would anyone really argue the opposite of that?

[winteriscoming]

I wouldn't think that point would need arguing.

I'm 28 and still working the job I had right out of college. As I said the house thread, I hate change.

I need clarification: Are you talking about different positions within a company or or do you want to know how many Employers we've had? I worked for the same company 21 years, and I held many different positions while I worked there.

Whut? More marriages than jobs = ur doing it wrong.

6 jobs, 1 marriage, no divorces. 22 years working 20+ hour/week.

[angelaa73]

[lemondrop]

This is weird.

What an astute observation!

I voted 11 jobs, but I've really had 13 (I blocked out my jobs in NYC). I'm only 25.

ETA: I have had more jobs than divorces, lol.

I'm smrt like that.

Seriously, though, is this even up for debate?

I have had more jobs (3) than divorces (0).

[Ruby Gloom]

1 divorce, 2 marriages, 5 jobs since I was 21. I'm 41 now.

EDIT: yeah, I just remembered what year it is. ADURRR

You get a job again much sooner and with much greater ease than you find another boyfriend.

I don't. But that's probably because I'm a total slut and a horrible worker.

Will you share with us where this MENSA cyberconference is happening?

[EmilieMadison]

Is anyone REALLY arguing that the average adult will only have 1 or 2 jobs? Because I think it's safe to say that the "average" person- by the time they're 50- has been married 1 or 2 times and most people will have more than 2 jobs in that time.
