What is the shortest amount of time you stayed at a job?

Why did you leave so soon?

2 hours. I watched the "supervisor" push a girl (who was sick) out of her chair. I stood up and said, "Wanna try that with me?"

At 18 I was sure I'd be an excellent waitress because my Mother and her sisters all worked as waitresses in the same diner for decades...figured it was in my DNA...i was wrong. Started at 6 a.m. my first day...at 8 a.m. I went outside for a Marlboro and kept walking to the bus stop. Nightmare job...but I'm a great tipper!

A full day. The worst pain on my whole body I've ever felt. I could not move all week. I needed a better fit for my injuries.

2 hours. I left because I had kidney issues that I didn't know about suddenly show themselves that morning.

Three months polishing head stones for graves. It was a summer job and extremely tedious.

About a year. The job was abolished due to the poor economy.

Boss thought they could manipulate me due to my mental health.

I think just 7-8 weeks. It was only a summer job during my teen years.

6 mos; Along with everyone who had under 5 years I was laid off.
I was eventually called back but was working for a company that paid much more by then.
