I'm still working with computers, just not supporting users / networks anymore  *%* but in a completely different industry / focus.

In the past, especially in I.T people tend to change jobs every 2-3 yrs, which is a good & bad thing I guess.  I jumped around from place to place over this time and I guess what I've learnt in my 17 years in working life is making it work for you.  At the end of the day, unless your running a business yourself, you're just another bare arse in the shower.  Places can survive without you and you can always be replaced.

I think at the end of the day, in the current economic climate I would not be changing jobs unless you were going somewhere that cannot cut staff back or isn't going to close!  If you can do your 8hrs, have time to pop on here during the day and come home to a comfortable house, family and have your toys in the garage then life is good.
