That's a bit sobering.
Doesn't seem like much to get excited about. Like others who have posted, I held several jobs when young. A quick mental
tally puts me at nine by 25 - and still nine by 55. If I count the consulting done for the same employer after early
retirement as a different job, that's ten by my early 70s. The USDoL would see two less, as they would be, uh, er,
unaware of the two that put me through the last 3.5 years at UC.
I'm actually kinda surprised that the number is that low.
