Minus several retail jobs I had in college, I'm on job number three post-law school. My first job was inherently temporary (I had a clerkship with a state appellate judge). I was at my second job--at a large law firm--for two years before I couldn't take it anymore. I've been at my current job with the federal government for 11. My boss retires in less than three years. It will be up to his replacement whether I get to stay on. So, I may be in job number four before I know it.
