I don't know if my previous post is up.
I'm the original poster.
I left those jobs with together with long stayers in the companies and we did reflect hard on ourselves and the environment prior to our decision - note these are women in their 40s with young children, they are not going to leave a job easily but they did.
We found the problem un-fixable and it certainly wasn't us that's toxic.
If you were to judge me, i'd say the only sin of mine is i don't like to fight at work. I should have stood up for myself more and learn to suck up more to colleagues with power.
I do my stuff and try my best to work with others. I don't gossip and don't mingle unnecessarily. I don't ask others to do clear my ****. So what am i toxic of?

Gettings lots of interview invitations.
Had 3 interviews so far, and some I didn't bother going to.
2 of them offered me the job but I turned them both down.
One of them I never wanted anyway so I don't know why I bothered, and the other didn't offer me enough hours apparently due to "budget constraints".
Only had the third interview yesterday so still waiting to hear back.
I've had 4 interviews my entire life, been offered a job for all 3, hopefully this one I'm waiting on now will offer me because I actually want this one, I'm on a winning streak.

Nowadays, even government is embracing frequent job changes and they call it 'career mobility'.
I myself am thankful for my frequent job changes, otherwise, I won't be able to learn many things. Currently, I am in my new job. My experiences have helped me alot.
What is there to reflect about on frequent job change ? You must have your reasons for leaving a company. Come on, this is a fast changing world. You won't be remembered even if you work in company for 20 years once you left the company due to retirement.
Talking about 'loyalty' in this era ? You must be kidding.

You sound like me. I also don't gossip and join whatsap group to gossip. I do my best in my work. There are instances I cannot tolerate the behaviors of some toxic colleagues. Even I leave the company, they are part of the reasons, though not entirely because of them. Yes, I also don't fight at work. I have seen colleagues who think they are smart but actually I know they are wrong in most times. lol. Really make my day.

Could I ask how long do you all usually work at a job before changing?
Every 3.5 years change job ok? Or no reason don’t change?
Have worked for 3 years, at still at my first job since graduating 3 years ago
If I do change, most likely due to pay increment

Shouldn’t change a job for the sake of changing. If you are happy working in the company, and the job pays well or in line with market, it’s alrite to stay in a company for long.
If you want to change, be it for higher pay or exposure, 3 years looks fine.
