One. For two months at Budget Rent A Car. Graduated from College in May, spent part of May and June job hunting in my field, decided to look for something for a little money while I continued job hunting. Started 42 years of continuous employment in my field in September.

My stop gap job after I lost job of 21 years turned into a long term position after I got moved into a different department that was more in line with career.

tons during college b/c the job had to work around college classes. after i graduated i fairly quickly learned that i had no desire to pursue employment in my major so i took a stop gap job that garnered me skills that led to a second where i garnered more that eventualy ended up qualifying me for a long term career.
