the reasons why you stayed and was it worth it?

At first, I changed jobs - FREQUENTLY - looking for a job I liked. It took me years (I finally got it when I got a college degree, before I was trying to get it WITHOUT a college degree, with NO luck!). Once I got exactly what I wanted; an office with a view, I stayed.
20 years to date. Plan on working 30 more. The view is great!
Lake, swaying palm trees. That is all I wanted in a job, and I got it.

I love my current job. I'm an engineer at a food manufacturer. I've only been there for a year but I am planning on staying here for a long time.
It's challenging. Every day is different, and every day will be different in the future.
My boss is awesome. He is not a micromanager.
I get to look at nice looking men all day (that's a perk).
I get to eat good product whenever I want (another perk).

No stress, after 31 years retired and never have to work again. Got my kids through college and didn't have beat the street looking for a job every year or two followed by unemployment after 50 like so many.
Yes, it was the right thing for US.

I actually like most of the people that I work with, I can dress casually (jeans) most of the time (in an office) and I like the diversity of the job. Otherwise I would have quit a long time ago.

I get to drive on the wrong side of the road!!!! I am also an adrenaline junkie... oh and I get to help people. Except, the pay sucks and the policies are worse. So it must be the driving on the wrong side of the road part.

I just found a job that I really enjoy. If you don't wake up each morning regretting that you have to go to work, your attitude and performance will be reflected.

Accepting additional responsibility.
Analyzing the behaviour and preferences of my boss and modeling my behaviour accordingly.
