I'm 24 and so far I've had a difficult time staying at one job. In fact, the longest I've stayed at one job was a year (twice). I seem to make it around 4-9 months before something happens or I don't want to work there anymore.
For example, at my current job (at a bar) I make really good money, but constantly run into men sexually harassing me and touching me and after I was assaulted last week I no longer want to work there. I've been there for 9 months.
The job before that was in medical data entry and I also made good money there, but I hated my bosses who constantly yelled at everybody, insulted everybody, and would threaten to fire us constanty. I was there for 4 months.
Then before that I was laid off after a year when the company I worked for got bought out.
I was a nanny for a year before that, but then had to move for college.
I had a few retail jobs even before that, but they'd work out for around 4 months before I wound up hating it and leaving them.
How can I find and stay at a job for a long period of time. I'm worried about my resume currently because everything was fairly short term. I really just want to find somewhere I like enough to stay for a long time.

I understand how you feel. I am also going through a similar situation. My first full time job was at a court. It was great for a while and I managed to stay there for 2 years. However, after a while, I became increasingly hard to cope with people and tragedies they have to deal with. Next was a tutoring job but I didn`t even last a year and that`s when I realized that I shouldn`t work with people. I was able to find a nice job in the IT industry and I am happier then ever. Anyhow, just try to figure out which environment suits you the most.
