Your a Contractor. By definition you change jobs every year or so is normal. I don't like dealing with it either. But that's not what you tell your next job. (wink)

Though, of what i've done over the years, i've actually liked cashiering at the grocery stores best.

The dreamiest job ever would to be an Indexer at the Library of Trantor. Alas, ...sigh... such job does not exist as yet, to my knowledge.
